Can anyone explain what is happening?

Hi again, sorry for asking so many questions again but so much is happening. 

Anyways, my 14 y.o daughter is in a PRU (Pupil Referral Unit) and recently teachers have reported that she will be wandering round the school, then she'll go to lesson and do some work, then out of the blue she will stop doing her work and become disengaged and become silent for around a minute. They told me that it's like she's just not fully there but will respond. When she comes out of it, she will do her work again for a bit, then she'll wander again and she'll go into the classroom and won't be able to sit down. She will take pins out the wall and look at them and try stabbing other things with them, waving things about, she'll be making loud noises, can't sit still and will walk round the room. Teachers have described some other random movements she does and told me it's like she's out of control and has laughing fits or tries not to laugh. When this happens, she will always be walking around the room and keep leaving and returning. (She only has 2 other pupils in her class). It's like out of no where she will be bursting with energy. 

I need some advice on what is happening and why and how we can help. How can we keep her to stay in the lesson and keep her and others safe?

Thanks
