Any other relevant info:
This was the first time that I received the cane, the bus driver had taken my name and reported me to the bus company who informed the school. My friend and I were summoned to the Headmistress after recess. We had to wait several minutes outside her office with our hands on our heads and noses to the wall. During the 15 minutes that we were in the office we were scolded; told what our punishment was going to be. I was caned first and then my friend was caned, he managed to keep his hands out for the four strokes but I put my hand in my armpit twice and shook my hand once when I received the strokes on my left hand. After we had been caned we were scolded a gain and threatened with the cane if we misbehaved on the bus again. In addition to the cane we had to stand outside the administration block facing the wall for the first half of lunch (this was a common punishment for misbehaviour during recess or lunch but you could find yourself there if you had visited the Headmistress). We were sent back to class but we stopped in the toilets to soothe our stinging hands under cold water after receiving advice from my older sister, this actually made the pain worse. I had to show the marks to my desk mate I and was scolded by my teacher for whispering in class.

Corporal punishment survey
Hi, I don’t know if this forum can help, but I’m trying to put together some realistic data regarding the use of corporal punishment in schools.
Reading this and other internet sources of information it is clearly very hard to distinguish between genuine accounts of CP, peoples fantasies, and role play.
School punishment books are difficult to find, or access. When they are available they only show the information that the establishments wished to disclose. They also only reflect official punishments, generally administered by the Head, consequentially they are not very representative of the general use of CP within schools.
If I study references in the media, the reports are generally only written when the incident was questionably outside the law. In England where I live, and indeed went to school, corporal punishment was legally practiced up until 1986. Therefore there would be no reason for the media to cover anything except the unusual.
Many of us however have witnessed (often first hand) the use of corporal punishment at school. If you have (as indeed have I) I’d be very grateful if you’d reply to this post giving as much accurate information as you feel comfortable with. However to keep this thread out of the realm of fantasy, I’d ask that you only post facts, and leave the creative writing and long discussions to other forums.

Hello Oliver,
Girls could receive the cane in primary school and in one of the instances where I was caned in primary school a girl was present and she also received the cane. When I started my secondary schooling I was not aware that girls were exempt from the cane until it was pointed out to me. Some commented that it was unfair but it was not widely discussed. Girls who had not received the cane did take in interest when one of us was caned and wanted to know what happened and see the marks.
When school corporal punishment ceased and was there was talk about rintroducing it I remember parents being asked whether to return to corporal punishment or not and I think that a fair few parents supported its use as well a a lot of the teaching staff but I think the decision was not to reintroduce the cane but I might be wrong. I was in my last two years of schooling and concentrating on other things so I don’t remember and I did not commit any transgressions that would have earnt puishment.
I do believe that it was unfair that girls could not be caned in secondary schools.

About the school

Effectiveness
Were you ever punished again for the same offence?: No
Do you consider the punishment effective?: Yes I was not involved in another one.
There were several boys and a few girls who were caned for their involvement in the incident ( I found out later that we were called out of class in groups of 3). All of the boys received six strokes of the cane, and the girls received four strokes of the cane this was the last time I received the cane in primary school.
When we arrived at the Headmistress office we had to stand with our hands on our heads and noses to the wall. We were summoned after waiting about 5-10 minutes and our Headmistress had her cane lying across her desk. She picked it up and was holding her cane as she scolded us and then she flexed her cane and ordered the first boy (name witheld) to hold out his hand before whacking him. I remember that we all put up a fuss when we were being caned by either putting our hands in our armpits or rubbing them together. When each of us rubbed we were told to put the hand that was not being caned behind our backs and promptly told to raise our hand again. Our Headmistress would place her cane lightly onto your palm before raising it and swishing it down. I was the last to be caned and I was quite scared having see the other two receive their punishments, I always hated seeing the cane swishing down onto my palms.
Any other relevant info:
As an additional punishment we had to stand and face the wall of the administration block for recess the following day. During assembly the same day our Headmistress gave the school a lecture about throwing objects around the playground and stated that those caught doing so would be caned.

Hi N.D.
A belated thank you for your replies to my questions. I am sure your views are reasonably representative.
I should note that I attended schools in northern Sydney in the 1960s. The cane on the hands was the standard punishment, but I suspect rules were bent a little more at that time. At primary school from time to time our teacher would put boys over his knee and spank them. I was threatened once and found that embarrassing enough. The only girl I saw punished had her skirt lifted and was smacked hard on the upper thigh.
In high school most teachers used the cane. This was on the hands and usually in the corridor or an office adjoining the classroom, so like most I saw many canings. Several of the older teachers would also bend boys over in class and hit them with various implements (eg cane, T square, sandshoe(slipper), hand or stick).
