Smartphone ban | According to a survey made last year, 68.1 percent of Chinese primary and junior high school students have their own smartphones. Lei Yanqin, a deputy, suggested that smartphones should be banned at schools nationwide. She said that listening to music and playing games in class not only influence teachers, but also make it difficult for students to pay more attention to lessons. She added that students also like to show off their phones too much. |
| New uniform designs | Most junior high schools in China require students to wear a uniform. However, only three in ten students are satisfied with their uniforms. Some deputies suggested that the uniforms in schools could be redesigned. They said the new design could add more features of traditional Chinese culture. They required that better quality cloth should be used to make the uniforms so that they will be more comfortable to wear. |
| Video game rating system | Over 200 million teenagers across China play online games like King of Glory. With the computers, teenagers are able to play most online games produced in China and abroad. However, some games might not be suitable for young people. Many deputies suggested that all games would be divided into age groups according to their content. Players would have to provide their ID numbers before playing certain games. |
