The OP is wrong.

Parents have a "duty of care". That means they can enforce rules which are for the wellbeing of their children, even apply punishment - without having to take the issue to Court.

Schools have a "duty of care". That means that for an incident which in the public which would involve the Court system - such as assault - punishment can be executed by the school wihout a Court order.
