Restraint and Seclusion Data

Data Collection
The CDE collected restraint and seclusion data for the first time from local educational agencies (LEAs) as part of the 2019–20 CALPADS End-of-Year (EOY) 3 annual data submission. In preparation for this data collection, the CDE directed LEAs to start collecting these data locally beginning in fall 2019 for submission to CALPADS from May to September 2020. To accommodate the collection of these data, the CALPADS student discipline data files were modified to include the collection of the following behavioral restraint and seclusion data, which are defined in EC section 49005.1:
- Mechanical Restraint: Use of a device or equipment to restrict a pupil’s freedom of movement (with exceptions).
- Physical Restraint: A personal restriction that immobilizes or reduces the ability of a pupil to move his or her torso, arms, legs, or head freely (with exceptions).
- Seclusion: The involuntary confinement of a pupil alone in a room or area from which the pupil is physically prevented from leaving.
