special education / restraint & seclusion in schools
Physical restraint and seclusion in schools are disproportionately used on students with disabilities, carry documented risks of physical and psychological harm, and lack evidence that they improve behavior or serve any therapeutic or educational purpose; the science supports their use only as emergency last resorts to prevent imminent serious harm, not as behavior-management tools.
