Legally they don't have much control to remove violent/disruptive students. Often you must write referrals, call the school deputy (if applicable) and try to contact the parents (which usually is futile) or else face legal punish themselves over violated students' rights.
But many schools are so overwhelm with out-of-control-kids and there are so many tiny legal requirements to expel or transfer that they don't bother. Sadly, there are many administrators that are afraid of retaliation so they pressure teachers to pass them on so they are "out of the system" and become the justice system's problem.
Strong talks maybe detention or a referral but if it's that bad call in the Principal
In the 'hood, don't they allow you to use tasers?
Calling the princapal
Not many. Basically, they can send the kid to the principal, or if he/she is violent, can call 911. Long gone are the days when kids were respectful of authority. Getting caught chewing gum in school used to be an embarrassing situation...now kids smuggle drugs and weapons onto campus and hardly even worry about reprisal.
teachers can restrain a child who may hurt him/her self or pose a danger to others they have to be trained first
yell at them, give them detention, make them miss their break, send them to the headteacher. if it is really bad then they can excude, iscolate or even expel.
Hopefully you have set the tone as to what the students expect. I teach in an inner-city school, and our union has directed us to not interfere in ANY altercation with a student. If a student is that violent, they should have an aid. And the aid should be in the room with you.
A child may be restrained only if they pose a danger to either themselves or others. They must be released as soon as the perceived danger is passed. This must be recorded and the parents informed.
If the child is violent, what made him/her violent? Is it just in one class or is there a history of violence in school and at home? The safety of students is important and anyone that is violent should be removed from the classroom.
Disruptive children should be dealt with by separating them from the other students and they should be given time to settle down and then find out why they become disruptive. Is it a habit, or is it because of the class? Do they understand what is required of them? Do they feel overwhelmed by the assignment? Are they just bored? This is where other professional staff should step in to find out.
Keep documentation of what happened, keep parents and principal/counselors informed.
Try talking to the child and see what is going on in their head.
