Councillor Michael Stratton – the cabinet member for children, families and education – said schools in the area already worked hard to “create the right learning environment”.
He said the council would “ensure our approach remains balanced, proportionate and focused on what is best for children and young people”.
The authority said there had been “significant engagement” from pupils, parents, carers and school staff, and that a report was being put together.
The findings are due to be discussed at a cabinet meeting next month.
Councils cannot impose legislation on schools, but can issue guidance.
Last month, the government announced it would introduce a legal ban on smartphones in schools in England.
