David Plešinger in my testing, even after removing the participants, they can rejoin and still retain access to the chat for the meeting. So in my scenario, that allows students to remain in chat without a teacher supervising.

Yes it is nowadays scenario: if you pass someone through lobby, he can return back until he restart browser or "restart Teams app" as well - and it is not ussual case. So right functionality END feature must return attendees tu the lobby and reset their permission to pass through, right?

Today Microsoft has not given us a possibility to lock the meetings. Attendees who could by pass lobby are:
- Everyone
- People on my organization and trusted organizations
- People on my organization
Unless your attendees are outside your organization, you cannot avoid people to re-join to your meeting.
Correct behavior is the same what text says: "End meeting". After that nobody is able to join to that meeting.
Plus, when you end meeting, it should be told to attendees, that organizer has end the meeting.

But do you then call that action as "End Meeting"? As in that scenario, the meeting is still available.
In your case, isn't better to call that action as "Restart Meeting"?
