Hard mute students audio in a meeting (so they cannot unmute themselves)
Teachers should be able to mute students voices in a way that they cannot dis activate. This could be used for lecture. Or to stop students interrupting on purpose.

Thanks to everyone who has voted on this. The team is making progress to ensure we have a safe and secure way to allow teachers to “hard mute” students during a meeting. We will share more details as we have them.

This is unbelievable. We are really having a hard time without the hard mute option. I would really like to know what was MS Teams team thinking when they rolled out the program without the option. Any student (out of a large class) could be tempted to unmute themselves.
And then how hard is it to implement such feature? How come all of your competitors have this and it is taking you literally months to roll it out. I am seriously considering switching to Zoom. I trusted you Microsoft. You failed me. -

Let teachers unmute students! As an early childhood educator it is extremely disruptive to the flow of a lesson to have very yound children have to navigate the muting button on their own.

It is Sep 20...where are hard mute and breakout rooms? Both are needed desperately as I teach K-1 special needs. I've really tried to stick with Teams, but I'm ready to switch to Zoom which has both. -

Has there been any progress on hard muting students? It’s mid-September, and Microsoft said they were working on adding this feature way back in June. It is really needed. Zoom has it.

اللي يقول ما اؤيد .. الخاصية اختيارية انت ماتؤيد اسمع صوتهم .. اذا مزعجين وصغار مافيه حل الا كتم واذا مافيه هالخاصية مشكلة فلذلك تواجدها خيار مهم وانت في النهاية تتحكم

Teachers must have the control to mute individual students but not the full control.

طريقة التصويت خاطئة. المفروض يكون فيه اختيار تأييد كتم صوت الطلاب أو عدم التأييد هو دخلنا التصويت على طول .
أنا لا أؤيد كتم صوت الطلاب. بل لابد من سماع مشاركاتهم وتفاعلهم -

It's a must to give the teacher the complete control to mute students
