Nothing happened and nothing should happen. Expulsion? Unthinkable for such a non-event. This is an overreaction and a misuse of police power, imho.
Perhaps, but IMO, the intent is just as bad. Why? Because it could have very well ended up very badly if they had indeed successful in tying up the teacher. I think some sort of punishment should be issued for the intent, and if I were that teacher, I'd get a restraining order real quick. Joke or no joke, WTF did they feel the need to attempt to tie up a teacher in the first damned place?? And who's to say that they won't try this again? *tsk*
