    Some good news! The ability to enable the Teacher-Only section group and to lock the Collaboration space for notebooks created with Teams is now available from the Office 365 tiles> ClassNotebook> ManageNotebooks

    Previously, notebooks created with Teams did not appear in the list. Now they do, with the message "This notebook was created in Microsoft Teams..." .  I've tested it and it works. See below:

I've resorted to, for now at least, a Teacher Only Team in conjunction with a Class Team. This gives more functionality than just the OneNote Teacher' section. I can also share that Team with other teachers, but it becomes mainly a private space - an oxymoron, I know, in collaboration software. Just trying it out. I'm not sure what my preference would be if a OneNote Class Notebook Teacher Only section would be available.

I too viewed the option to manage the class notebook through view teams > Settings. This does not look like it has been added in to the Class team. 

It looks like instead, all class notebooks, whether in onedrive, classroom or teams, are managed through the Office365 Waffle > Class notebooks. OR https://www.onenote.com/classnotebook/notebook-links

I can see some sense in this in that if you have mutliple classes, or external links for parents are created, these are all done from the same location. rather than from each class team
