No student shall be subjected to corporal punishment by program personnel of any program which receives Federal financial assistance. A student who has been subjected to corporal punishment by program personnel in violation of subsection (a), or the parent of such student, may file a civil action in any Federal or State court of competent jurisdiction against the program under which the violation is alleged to have occurred for attorneys’ fees, expert fees, injunctive relief, and compensatory damages.
Section 615(l) of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act ( 20 U.S.C. 1415(l) ) shall not apply to an action filed pursuant to subsection (b), regardless of whether or not the student is seeking relief that is also available under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act ( 20 U.S.C. 1400 et seq.).
