At a London grammar school, I was caught ‘fighting in the art class. In fact I had been attacked by another boy and simply resisted him. ‘See me in Room six at the break’ was the message from the art master.
I went to Room 6 and the art master was waiting there with a long thin cane and the punishment book. I tried to explain what had happened but he would not listen.
‘I shall have to cane you,’ was all that he would say. ‘Now turn round and bend over.’
