at my private school prefects were allowed to slipper and cane other boys which created an atmosphere of fear. Whilst I was there girls were allowed into the 6th form and in time some of them became prefects.Obviously, these girls weren’t allowed to cane boys but some of them(including my girlfriend)asked for a meeting with the headmaster in which they asked for the right to at least give the plimsoll to boys who misbehaved as they felt that the needed to have some backup. To their surprise, the head agreed that they could not only give boys the plimsoll but the cane too where appropriate, subject to agreement by the board of governors of the school. A few days later my girlfriend asked me to come to the housemaster’s office one evening(it was a boarding school)for a few minutes. When I got there she asked me to lock the door and introduced me to her friend Sophie(another prefect).
