I attended a public School in the 60’s, where I was caned several times.
We had a system of pluses and minuses. 4 minuses awarded in one week would automatically mean a visit to the Headmaster for the cane. I was 11 when this happened to me for the first time. I arrived outside the Head’s study at the appointed time to meet 3 other unfortunates. The Head came out, called the first boy in, and told me I would be next. A few minutes later came the dreadful sound of cane meeting bottom 4 times. The door opened and out streaked the boy furiously rubbing his bottom.
