Definitely.
Apart from the immediate benefit of the ban it will also teach children that there are many places or situations, not only in school, where portable telephones ought be or must be turned off. In certain cases they must be left in secure holdings before entering the room or commencing the activity.
We should not be too hard on the children by blaming them entirely. They respond to peer-pressure but are also only copying what they see so many adults doing, which is allowing themselves to be enslaved by the instruments.
(Mine has been switched off all day. It still is - but I came on here only after a day doing other things. I was away over Easter, and though I had it with me, I didn't use my 'phone once. )
