I'm pretty sure that means no using a choke hold in a kid, or even a carotid restraint, and not doing harm to either party.

But I doubt very much that means stand by and try to talk little Sarah or Johnny down from kicking another student.

(6) Physical restraint; training. (a) Except as provided in par. ©, no covered individual may use physical restraint on a pupil at school unless he or she has received training in the use of physical restraint that includes all of the following components:

There is a lot more to it, but a normal classroom teacher cannot use restraint which would pretty much be the only way to stop a fight if verbal commands don't work. If there is no trained staff available the only option is to call the police if they won't stop.

Yes, that was kind of a given.

The gist was to contradict your ridiculous premise that a normal classroom teacher cannot use restraint which would pretty much be the only way to stop a fight if verbal commands don't work

This bit is relevant as well: {i}A covered individual who has not received training...
