Hi – Sorry I took so long to reply, my laptop has been away for repair.
Any way regarding the school I attended on your list 2 girls were at this particular school when I was there. Both their names were very popular at the time and there was 4 girls in my class who shared those names.As for the male teachers who administered their punishment i.m pretty sure that I would have been whacked by them as I can recall 8 -10 masters who tanned my backside when I was at school

Found a chance reference to being caned at Culcheth Hall by a female member of Fetlife. Do you have any data on this private school at all?

Hello neilmc32,

Currently I have found no reference to the cane or slipper being used at Culcheth Hall. The only reference to SCP I have found so far is an undated slap across a leg by a female teacher. Of course, just because I’ve not found a caning account/reference doesn’t mean it did not happen.

I’m not sure that private schools were, by LEAs, required keep records of CP. However I’m sure many private schools did keep records. Perhaps some school governors required this. We must also remember that in many state schools that classroom punishments were not recorded.

I have to say that from what little information is quickly to hand on the web Culcheth Hall School at Altrincham, Cheshire (there is also a Culcheth High School at nearby Warrington) does not sound the sort of school where SCP would have been much used and it does not surprise me that I, Researcher can locate only a slapped leg.

A private school for girls aged up to 16, it seems to have been a happy school very highly regarded by parents, though not highly enough to keep role numbers sufficient for profitability, and it closed in 2011 after a 120 year history despite recent excellent inspection reports and organised efforts by parents to keep it open. At one time it was apparently much favoured by premier league footballers, several of whom have resided in the area, to educate their daughters.

Regarding Culcheth Hall,, my correspondent explained that the cane was used on hands but a couple of teachers would use plimsoles on the bottom. She did not view her schooling with any affection and is glad the school is now closed.
