Although I agree that the slipper was in regular use in the private system for girls, I think that 12 of the best was a little harsh. Generally speaking 6 was the maximum. The senior mistress at my school usually gave 4, but these were very effective. Some prefects did give 6 but this was exceeding their authority. I am a very modest person by nature so please do not make any inquiries concerning skirts and knickers. Thank you for your time and patience.
