Hi,
I am a teacher currently looking at options for virtual schooling during coronavirus shutdown. A lot of people are using teams, and I like much of the functionality, however I cannot seem to work out how to stop participants in a meeting unmuting themselves. This is probably fine for adult meetings, but with groups of children it's quite a distraction. Ideally I would like them to be able to choose individuals to unmute when I wish them to speak, but to be the only person with that power. Is it possible? Or is teams an inappropriate platform for this kind of task?

Annoyingly MS have incorrectly marked the request completed - incorrectly because they didn't listen to the use case properly.
I haven't found another thread to vote up yet.

@Christopher Hoard If you use Meet Now inside the channel and make them an attendee, they can't unmute themselves. https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/roles-in-a-teams-meeting-c16fa7d0-1666-4dde-8686-0a0bfe16...

@Amy_P_librarian I believe they can unmute themselves if they are an attendee.
