I'm just the same with music as it shown when I have ict I don't get distracted etc and just do what I need to

Exactly. Pretty sure I've carried out an investigation before in Science about how music affects your focus and it did make my reaction time faster.

I think they should. and if a teacher tries to take it from you just say this line "Do you pay my phone bill? did you buy my phone? do you not have your own? This is my property and you can't take it from me since it's not yours" and see what happens :hurr: :hurr: :hurr:

If you do this two things will happen
You will look like you have autism, and then you will just escalate things. If you're using it in class or whatever then maybe it should be taken away from you and you should just accept it?

1. Look up autism and never talk aboit it again. 2. Its not their property so they have no right taking it

I think phones should be allowed at school because if something happens like if they miss the bus or something they can contact home in case on an emergency.

Yes because in the case of emergency, no one wants to call the school phones and be tied up in the lines for 15 minutes.

Yes, of course, but not in classrooms for sure.

Look up the internet and expect people to call you autistic if you suggest autistic things. ie. Be autistic.
Also they shouldn't forcefully take your phone off of you. They should say "Give me your phone", that's one form of punishment or resolution to you being a brat in their lessons. If you refuse to go with the easier (Nicer option), then you'll likely be told to go and see another member of staff or get a detention or something depending on how your school does things. They're not forcefully taking it, like you say they have no right. But as a an alternative to making the situation worse they will just ask for your phone so you stop going on it whilst they're trying to teach.
