"Specifically trained" can vary widely.

Exactly. Our ESE teachers and paras had to take a class. No class? No touch! Security had the training too.

Sometimes you don't have the luxury of waiting for campus security. If two (or more) big kids start going at it, the teachers nearby just shout out and expect me and one of another few teachers if available to haul ass down the corridor and get between hopefully without hurting anyone. Campus security does great work, but it's a very large campus and it can take a while to get from A to B.

In this case, ^^^ it was a school for students with developmental and/or behavioral issues. Local police had to show up over 100 times over the past decade or so.

To me, the lady should continue to go to work. In other words, make it be known that if she does surrender, she is not going to surrender quietly. If they didn't want her to make a big stink, they shouldn't have made one of their own first. In other words, if they didn't want her in the game, why did they take the time to show her how to play it?

God bless you and the lady and her students always!!!

That all depends on the rules set forth in your school, district or state. It varies.

So what was the restraint she used. I had annual training when I worked with kids in mental health on what we could and could not do.
The public schools are being used as mental hospitals and teachers arent trained for that

I have loved kids and teaching for the last 32 years, and I retire on Nov. 1st. This career is now unsustainable. I wouldn't advise almost anyone to go into it now.

Mostly, it's a societal/cultural problem.

Thank you. However, that poster disparages me because I could easily get hurt by elementary children. Important to note that I'm 5'0 tall and very petite and many of the students are bigger than I am. But he mocks concerns anyway.

My school now feels like an asylum. Screaming, kids getting nekkid (yes), detained in hallways and rooms where they rip drywall out and smear feces on the wall.

I'm not making any of this up

In this case, what was the situation where another student can get hurt?

It only takes one lawsuit to change people's opinions.
