There was never a time when it was illegal for males to punish female pupils with CP.
It was sometimes a rule of some of the Local Education Authouritys that there were limits to the punishment or the impliment used, but never a legal requirement.
To avoid any implication of “wrong doing” some school did have a F/F or M/M policy.
It all a bit strange because there were many female teachers who were sexually turned on by punishing their own sex group. IE in particular gym mistress ( wandering apostrophe )
