I suppose having four house master, a deputy head, and the Head ‘ licensed to cane’ meant there were likely to be more canings. We had just over 1,000 boys in those days , and I never totaled it up exactly , ( although the old boys have researched the punishment books) but it well exceeded your totals. On some days , several boys, especially for missing detention or smoking ….well 7 a week might be somewhat nearer , but still bit low , sometimes more , many more! I would have said (guesstimate) over five years ( excluding the sixth form where different rules applied) you must have had had a far better than even chance of being caned.
