You can disable chat for users in a Meeting policy, this will stop them from chatting in all meetings. Set MeetingChatEnabledType to Disabled using powershell.

I have policy set where 'Allow chat in meetings' is set to disabled in meetings policies. I have tried changing the policy settings both through the Teams Admin Center and powershell. Students are still able to chat during meetings and also reply to the meeting chat after meetings have ended. I have found that the 'mute' option in the manage team setting prevents students from being able to do those, but it also leaves an option to attempt to resend/retry when the 'mute' option is disabled.
Are there any thoughts on why the centralised meetings policy in the Teams Admin Center isn't working for this particular setting? Is the setting bugged? Will there be a fix? I'm just trying every avenue I can.
alice1832 I might be a bit late on this for you. I tested raising hands with a muted student and they were still able to raise their hand during meetings. I hope that is helpful.
