Don't forget you also lose all the android apps you purchased. Oh wait, isn't there a community that helps you avoid that?

Even if you are allowed to use your phone, I'm pretty sure low-performance would get you fired from almost every job. The point still stands, kids need to learn self-control starting at a young age.

Meh... Kids need to learn self control. Who's gonna hold their phones when they have a job, or during a funeral? Workplace don't want to be responsible for your phone, and they'll just fire you if you get caught using your phone during work hours. Also liability problems... what happens if the phones are damaged or missing? What if some creepy pedophile teacher injects spyware in the phones when the kids attention are focused on a test?

If you can't leave you phone in a backpack for a few school hours, how do you deal with not being able to use your phone at a job which may have even more hours, and which your livelihood depends on?

Signal jammers are illegal. Certainly wouldn't be a good idea to install those in the US, where school shootings are common.

Edit: Also, unrelated to the signal jamming thing you talked about:

Phones are useful in case of a fight were to occur, which happen very often (at least in schools I went to). Video recordings are good to determine fault. School surveillance cameras are often cheap, blurry, unreliable, have many blind-spots, and also forbidden in classrooms (at least in the US). In addition, sometimes classrooms still use old textbooks that only have 1 class set, and are very heavy to carry, and they aren't available online, so in that case, kids can just take photos of the textbook and the school saves a lot of money from having to copy-print the textbooks, so maybe they just need to make 1 or 2 copies for the kids that don't have a phone. Phones are very useful, just needs reasonable rules. A complete ban is not necessary in my opinion.
