If you want to demonstrate official statistics are rubbish, fine, but don’t just ignore them . Besides which talk to any teacher in the state sector within Scotland pre 1980 and listen to what they will say….I know a couple who would tell you ……If you were educated in the pre abolition period ( pre82) and you never got tawsed you were lucky in your parents’ choice of schools ,or very good! Of course I think technically CP wasn’t finally outlawed in Scotland in theory in the private sector as I understand the law, until 2000, but no tawsing post ’82 and the European court ruling.I have no knowledge of what practical effect this two stage legal move had.
