Teachers at the school claim* that students using mobile phones in lessons - especially for texting — has become a major problem. In 2007 the school banne students from taking phones into the classroom.
But teachers say they were each still having to confiscate two or three phone a day because students were ignoring the rule and texting in class. The teacher- say this was very annoying because it was disrupting* lessons.
It took two days for pupils to work out that a jammer was the reason the: phones weren’t working. A group of the students used the internet to find ou about the use of mobile phone jammers. They found a reference to a law calle the Canada Radiocommunications Act. This law says it’s illegal to use an device that blocks people’s mobile phone signals.
The students then held a protest rally against the use of the jammer. As soo as the headteacher learnt it was illegal, he switched the jamming device off. H said he was impressed by the way the pupils had done their research into th Radiocommunications Act.
Mobile phones in school classrooms cause a lot of arguments. Many studen' say it is their right to have them wherever they want. Some parents say the want to be able to contact their children. But many teachers say they can’t teac lessons when there are so many disruptions from using mobile phones.
The

Pride and Prejudice is about the Bennet family. In 1813, English ‘ladies’ from good families do not go to work but Mr and Mrs Bennet are short of money. So the only hope for their five teenage daughters is to marry rich men.

Unfortunately, Mr Darcy seems rude and uninterested in the Bennet girls. Gradually however, Elizabeth, the second Bennet daughter (Keira Knightley) realises that she likes Mr Darcy.
Mr Bennet (Donald Sutherland) and Mrs Bennet (Brenda Mulligan) are both, in their different ways, rather unwise parents and there’s a near disaster when Lydia Bennet Qena Malone) rebels*.
Joe Wright, the director of this excellent new film shows us what life would really have been like for a family like the Bennets in early nineteenth century England. They have farm animals, laundry hanging outside and, compared with neighbours such as Mr Bingley (Simon Woods) of Netherfield Hall, their house is small and old.
The acting is fine too. Keira Knightley, as Elizabeth, shows very clearly in her face what she is thinking. Donald Sutherland, a Canadian actor seems a rather odd choice for Mr Bennet though and he looks a bit scruffy. Dame Judi Dench, as the witch-like Lady Catherine de Bourgh is so horribly patronising that she is funny.
This new version of Pride and Prejudice is fast-moving and colourful. The music is good too, especially in the ballroom scenes. Once you’ve seen and enjoyed it you will probably want to read (or re-read) Jane Austen’s book.
