Whether it is legal for a teacher to take away your cell phone or iPod, the simple answer is that more than likely it is not. Generally speaking, one is not guilty of theft if there is an absence of dishonesty or an intention to permanently deprive another of their property. In this case, a teacher would not be authorized to hold onto your items indefinitely or permanently.*
All school rules SHOULD confirm to the laws of whichever country but sometimes they do not. Sometimes there are rules which generally prohibit the bringing of certain items to school for various reasons. The main reasons are usually based on:
If the teacher takes it away from one of their students and throws it away then it probably is illegal. But if the teacher bought it making it legaly theirs then it is legal.
It depends on the agreement. If it was a binding contract and the holder received some benefit to the agreement, then it is a breach of contract. For example, if you hired a self store unit to store your things and paid them a monthly rate, they would be legally bound to store them. If there is no binding agreement, there is no legal issue.
AnswerEach of the parties must consult with their own attorney since, generally, one or both will be signing away their legal rights.
Technically no. Because your parents didn't buy the cell phone for you, they have no legal right to take it away from you.
It is illegal don't let anyone do that to you just call the police right away
They should not be. I would expect a teacher in any school here to take te phone away for the semester.

Yes. technically you are not considered competent to sign a contract at 17.
No the teacher is not allowed to physically snatch the phone out of your hand in some states this is considered simple assault. The teacher is however allowed to ask you to hand over your phone for confiscation til the end of the day or otherwise noted on the school policies.
No, they cannot. If a teacher, principal, etc. takes your phone for a good reason, then they can keep it until the end of the year, if they'd like It IS illegal to look through anyone's phone without permission on any circumstances. Your parents can do it, but that's only if they bought it, etc. and the school cannot charge money to get your phone back, I'm pretty sure that's illegal, too. Answer: NOPE
The act of walking away from a teacher is not against the law. Other circumstances may complicate the situation.
no, unless it is proven that the teacher has information directly related.no they wouldn't have responability because u don't have to share information with anyone, but if they claimed they didnt no anything about it and they actually did only then they would have responsability for informing that he ran away
