At the mixed grammar school I attended in the 1960s both boys and girls were subject to the cane. We were caned over normal clothing, and this was never rearranged by lowering trousers or raising skirts. This rule was of no consequence for boys, we simply bent and got the cane across the seat of our trousers. For the girls, though, there was a problem, in that a girl wearing a full skirt would feel little, or far less, pain from being caned through it. Any girl due for a caning unless she was wearing trousers, which was permitted for sixth-form girls, in which case she was treated just like a boy would be was therefore always sent to change into gym kit.
