Miss Raine (The Old Girl) is worth a mention. She was not that bad a teacher and very strict with the boys. Her technique was to ask them to roll up their shirt sleeve of their right arm the upper part of which she then proceeded to slap hard about 25 times. This was quite painful. If she could not be bothered to slap an errant pupil he or she would be sent with a note to Thommo. I understand Miss Raine never disciplined girls herself which was odd. Again therapists might like to explain why a middle aged experienced female teacher who was quite happy to soundly slap boys arms would decline to discipline girls preferring instead to send them to a thirtyish male to be put across his knee and have their bottoms or upper legs spanked.
