A draft law has been prepared in Denmark giving teachers the authority to 'physically intervene'

In the news in the Danish media, it was stated that within the framework of the draft law brought to the agenda by the Minister of Education Magnus Heunicke, teachers can "physically intervene" against students who pose a danger to classroom order, cause physical or psychological harm to others, damage property and disrupt classes.

It was stated in the news that physical intervention should be considered as a "last resort" and that the bill was prepared due to the increase in cases of violence, aggressive behavior and damage to property in Danish schools.

Minister Heunicke stated that teachers should not hesitate to intervene during an incident and said that the regulation aims to ensure security and order in schools.

In order for the bill to come into force, it must be voted on and passed by the Danish Parliament.
