The only punishments that do so, as far as I am aware, are the fearsome rattan canings performed in Malaysia and Singapore, and delivered on the naked bottom.

I have read that the caning officer must practice a special technique in order for the cane to break the flesh, so as to leave scarring.

It seems as if your schoolmaster was under-studying these gruesome chappies.

It is the first time that I have ever heard of a school caning producing such a result.
