Hello,
I'm not sure if these settings exist, but I am really hoping that they do (I am a high school math teacher).
These are my only questions right now, but I am new to teams and I'm sure there will be more need of different settings like these as I go. I have successfully made myself as the only presenter (so no one can screen share their video games or whatever they're doing) and I know about the "end meeting" button. Any other helpful settings that you know of would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Paige

@PaigeFarrell Just a quick reply from my experience. Perhaps others will still pitch in.

@PaigeFarrell Here are my responses to your questions -
Is there a way to control who can start a scheduled meeting? This is not possible in meetings except in Live Events via Global (Org-wide default) policy in the Microsoft Teams Admins center, however Customized policies can be created by your Microsoft 365 Administrator - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-US/microsoftteams/meeting-policies-in-teams?WT.mc_id=TeamsAdminCenterC...
Is there a way to block people from using the chat feature unless you allow it? This is tricky at this point, yet again your Microsoft 365 Administrator can turn chat off for all students , there is no feature that allows for putting off and on of chat by team owners
it? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/messaging-policies-in-teams
On your last question, we might start a uservoice on adding this feature in the Manage Team > Settings > Member permission area
