     &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ending Corporal Punishment in Schools Act of &lt;/b&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2021&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This bill prohibits the Department of Education (ED) from providing funding to any educational agency or institution that allows its school personnel to inflict corporal punishment upon a student as a form of punishment or to modify undesirable behavior.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;First, the bill requires each state educational agency (SEA), in order to receive education funds, to submit to ED a state plan for eliminating the use of corporal punishment in schools. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Additionally, the bill authorizes ED to award three-year grants to SEAs and, through them, subgrants to local educational agencies (LEAs) to assist them with improving school climate and culture. Grants must be used to implement school-wide positive behavioral intervention and support programs.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Further, LEAs that receive subgrants must ensure that private school personnel are able to participate in grant activities.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;ED may also allocate funds to the Department of the Interior for schools operated or funded by Interior.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Next, the bill directs ED to carry out a national assessment to determine compliance with the requirements of the bill and identify best practices for professional development and training programs.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Finally, the bill gives protection and advocacy systems the authority to investigate, monitor, and enforce protections for students that are provided by the bill.&lt;/p&gt;
