If you want to teach kids how to look up information, you can create spaces for that. They don’t need unrestricted access to their smart phones to accomplish that throughout the day. Hell you can relax your policies as they grow up and show the maturity to handle having a smart phone in the classroom. If schools want to do that, I am all in favor of it. But they would have to start early and build a system, which is a lot to ask of already overworked educators.

I am not talking about unrestricted access either. It depends on age, but they could always just ask the teacher if they're allowed to look up something. And also I don't see how disallowing phones during breaks helps education. It's meant to be a break.
