If I have to tell you, it'll be nine." There was a cold silence. Lucas waited, then continued. "What will it be? Six or nine?" It is a myth that abolition was overwhelmingly demanded by school pupils themselves. True, a flurry of activity by the very short-lived "Schools Action Union" in 1972 briefly gained some press publicity, but this was a tiny, and almost certainly highly unrepresentative, group based entirely in a small number of London schools and manipulated, if not indeed created, by older students on the far left. Then in 1977/78 came the National Union of School Students, marginally longer-lasting but scarcely any more representative of pupils generally. It campaigned more against unofficial and irregular CP, as in this Aug 1977 report and this May 1978 one, than against CP as a whole. A 1977 survey of young people found that half of them were in favour of retaining CP at school, including many who had themselves been caned or strapped.

I do at least four hours preparation for every 45-minute to an hour lesson I teach. The lessons are accurate. They’re not taught to degree level but they’ll introduce the ‘pupils’ to new information so everyone will go away having learnt something - we even set homework!” Obviously I was never going to take a blind bit of notice and myself and two friends were soon caught red-handed (or should that be cold handed?) by that sneaky deputy head who was spying on us. We were stood in front of his desk in his office when he decided to throw us a lifeline. He wouldn't cane us if we could each come up with a good reason not to throw snowballs.If they are punishing anyone there’s always a senior teacher there to make sure the play is safe,” she adds. Colin stood slowly and tentatively, still looking slightly at the floor. He wasn't sure that he was out of the fire yet. Now, I want you to bend right down over the desk, holding onto the other side. And you stay there until I give you permission!" sobbing softly, and her arousal magnified. She almost weakened. The desire to drag her husband into the bedroom to satisfy her Yeeoow! Oh please, please," Colin cried out. His bottom felt like it was on fire. Even more embarressing, he could

What do the Friends Reunited anecdotal recollections tell us about the nature, distribution and incidence of corporal punishment in English schools in the 1960s and 1970s? A feature article including a table of "The top 50 CP schools". You're to get six," he said brusquely, without preamble. Sarah didn't blink, though she swallowed hard at the news. "I don't have to tell you what this is for, as I'm certain you know." Pamela was impressed with Colin's self-control, but she knew that the caning wasn't even halfway finished. She would get to After a similar interval there was the sound of another stroke. This time there was no doubt about it. The impact was followed swiftly by a sharp cry of pain. I wondered how many strokes Lindsey was going to get. At all events, I have to say that after over an hour's careful perusal I put this document down feeling completely unconvinced that these private schools should be prevented by law from mildly spanking their students when necessary, if that is what the parents want.Now it's time to bare that bottom of yours," Pamela said as she reached around and began to undo Colin's pants. This isn't Afterward, as the three whipped ones of us took solace in our misery, Lucas calmly lit a cigarette and blew puffs of smoke at the ceiling. In the remaining private schools it was banned in 1999 in England and Wales, 2000 in Scotland, and 2003 in Northern Ireland. Most had anticipated the legislation and abandoned CP voluntarily several years earlier. A few Christian private schools held out, and fought the ban through the courts, ultimately without success (see links below). She'd never been caned herself and wondered how it would feel. Curiosity got the better of her, and Pamela tentatively put out her left hand and lightly brought the cane down on her palm. That didn't hurt, she thought. I'd better do it properly if I really want to find out. Pamela lifted the cane again and brought it

I drove in the last stroke with all my skill, but my heart wasn't in it, as I knew I'd lost. When Doris stood up a moment later, I saw she was weeping and her red eyes looked at me with fresh respect and alarm. I guess I had hurt her. Unfortunately, it hadn't been enough. Much more often, though, in the rare instances where corporal punishment cases reached the stage of prosecution, heads and teachers were vindicated by the courts, which generally upheld the punishment as "reasonable" and therefore lawful. For some early such cases, see this Dec 1900 news item and this May 1903 one (the latter being interesting also for its use by the magistrate of the colloquial term "to be swished" meaning to be caned) and this Nov 1933 one. I'm not judging you, I just really don't understand it because I grew up in the 70's where this would never have happened. If somebody had tried this with my kid I would have followed them home and said "Right, you beat my kid and now I'm here to find out if you like a stranger abusing yours?" to get my point across. Of course I would not do anything but I think they would see where I was coming from. Headmasters, too, could be robust in defence of their right to use corporal punishment, as seen in this June 1968 report from their annual conference. Good. Then let the punishment begin." Lucas nodded at Thomas, who stepped forward with the long classroom cane.One consequence of the perceived collapse in school discipline has been a tendency for some (especially immigrant-descended) parents to send their teens abroad to complete their secondary studies, often to Africa or the Caribbean, where a stricter and more structured education, including CP where necessary, is still available. See for instance this Nov 1997 news item about an under-achieving 13-year-old whose parents sent him to school in Ghana, with miraculous results, and this similar Nov 2007 report in which a British 17-year-old, sent away, also to Ghana, to study for his GCSEs, admitted he had been caned there several times and agreed he was benefiting academically from the novel experience of strict discipline. See likewise Children sent to Caribbean for 'basic' schooling, a news report from July 1996, and UK Ugandans rush kids to Kampala schools, from May 1998. No LEA banned corporal punishment altogether until 1979/80, when three Labour-controlled outer London boroughs took the abolitionist plunge, followed more famously in 1981 by the huge, Labour-controlled Inner London Education Authority (ILEA), which covered 12 London boroughs, a population of nearly 3 million, and getting on for 1,000 schools. The ILEA had already put a stop to CP in primary schools with effect from 1973. I watched in disbelief. This was the girl I'd given nine to not more than a month ago and she'd hardly batted an eye. Now she takes three -- just three strokes with an ordinary classroom cane -- and she's writhing on the floor as though her legs have been lopped off? As high as it had been, my admiration for Lucas went up still higher. The man was superhuman. You recently asked the question: were teachers taught how to use the cane or tawse as part of their training? A friend of mine saw this on the internet and I thought you might like to hear my recollections of this aspect of school life.
