Girls being slippered in our school was rare but it did happen and I heard about it about half a dozen times whilst I was there. I wasn’t hiding in the bushes or anything cloak and dagger I was simply delivering the punishment book to the gym. When I arrived, there was no one about but I could hear shouting from the sports hall. I walked up to the the little fire window in the door and because the gym was lit and the corridor was dark I saw two girls get slippered on their bums whilst wearing their P.E shorts by their FEMALE P.E teacher. They didn’t have to drop their knicks or do anything like say some fantasy ritualistic comments like “1” miss! or “thank you miss”. They just got their bums whacked and left red faced. As soon as they walked towards the door I shot back to the office it was all over in about 30 secs.
