COThe Education Secretary of Bogotá, Julia Rubiano, announced new educational sanctions for students, changes to school rules, and efforts to improve student relationships, following the approval of Resolution 1037 of 2026. This resolution prohibits the use of screens, including mobile phones, in both public and private schools within Bogotá, except for educational purposes. The decision was made after 77,000 students, teachers, administrators, and families participated in Institutional Educational Forums across 20 districts, where they identified 266 strategies for addressing digital dynamics in education. Each school has discretion to decide whether to allow students to carry devices or keep them under supervision during breaks and until the end of the day.
