In the Junior School there was classroom CP all the way through, and quite a lot of it. Slipperings, rulerings and smackings for boys and girls. I don’t believe there were any punishment books involved at all. Teachers simply called miscreants to the front of the class, punished them, and continued the lesson. In theory probably children could have been sent to the Headmaster to be caned, but as far as I am aware no Junior School children were caned while I was there, and certainly we didn’t consider it as a possible outcome of naughtiness at that stage. Had any children been so dealt with I have no doubt that there would have been a punishment book entry. I understand that there was when he caned children from the Senior School, a fairly frequent event
