Being sent to the headmaster’s office was just one of the worst feelings ever for a schoolboy and even worse still was having your name read out at the end of assembly when the headmaster would announce would the following boys see me outside my study afterwards or at a given time. The rest of the school would look at you knowing that you were in trouble and that you would most likely be getting a caning. Walking down the corridor and then waiting outside really did have your legs trembling as you waited in silence on your own or with other boys all feeling a terrible apprehension and sometimes this was even more so if another boy or boys were in the study before you and you could here the obvious sounds of the cane being used and sometimes a boys distress as he was being caned.
