00:00Many schools already ban mobile phones in the classroom for good reason and we take really seriously what Brianna's mum Esther is saying about this issue and to be honest really in awe actually of the campaigning that she is doing after the loss of her daughter in the most horrific and appalling circumstances.
00:25So we are listening to what she's saying, we are listening to what schools are saying and we're also looking at a wide range of online safety measures including looking at limiting use of social media.
