Canings (again in my experience) were a slightly different matter.

They were administered by the person (Headmistress, Associate Headmaster or Deputy Headmistress) awarding them but usually only after a report from a teacher.

In such a case, will any resentment be directed at the person awarding and administering the punishment or the teacher who made the report?

As both played a part, I suggest any resentment is likely to be diffuse there too.
