Need to Close a Meeting in Teams
Which version of Microsoft Teams are you using the free version of Microsoft Teams or the Office 365 version of Microsoft Teams.
In the Teams Meeting there is an option in the Three Dots/More Option from where we share the screen to End the Meeting. In case you are on the latest version of Microsoft Teams you should be able to end the meeting as per the below screenshot.

I am using the version that our school pays for. We have a subscription.
I did end the meeting like you showed in the video. And, I set the duration time for half hour. But, it's still open. Students can open this meeting many days later and talk without me knowing it. I see that I can cancel the meeting, which will stop it. However, cancelling a meeting and ending one is not the same. I am hoping that there is another tool that ends it that I am missing.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Sincerely,
Deb McCutcheon @Debra_McCutcheon

Debra_McCutcheon Hello Debra, the 'end meeting' feature was completed about a month ago but unfortunately they overlooked what end meetings should include. In other words I understand what you want to achieve and there's a couple of Teams UserVoice requests on the topic. Go there and vote to stay updated.

ChristianBergstrom Microsoft are working on a setting for Edu to require a teacher to admit students from the lobby, this will then mean student's can't
- join early
- rejoin later
- invite other people to the meeting
- get back in if they were forced out.
