I learned from this that the recommended serving size on a cereal packet isn't enough to feed a sparrow."
Sound familiar? Tell us more.

The majority of Teachers are control freaks, or at least some of them have to be. We had a music teacher who would have tantrums if pupils got the lessons wrong. Some pupils would deliberately get the music wrong to see him flip his lid. After 10 minutes of a calculated wind-up he would hurl objects across the room and kick tables and chairs over. Often wanging a cymbal across the room toward the object of his misery, frisbee like. All of this culminated in him screaming at the guilty students.

We had one who once tore the lid off the piano and hurled it at someone.

If you ain't no music teacher why are we singing "Don't Dream It's Over" together?

I ain't no music teacher, but you have a fantastic singing voice. We can continue to duet.

He had the best punishments for misbehaviour; if someone was slightly disruptive, he'd make stand up. If they continued, he'd make them stand on their chair... then their desk... then finally on a filing cabinet in the corner.
This usually had the requisite effect, as no-one wanted to have to balance on a filing cabinet for the rest of the lesson.
For those who continued to disrupt even from such a precarious perch, or those who had a long history of dicking about every lesson, he'd simply say "Go away!" and point at the door... this didn't mean "Stand outside my door!" however, because if anyone DID stand there, after 5 minutes he'd go out and say "No... I told you to go away... I really don't care where, but just no-where near here." The poor fucker would have to go and hang around outside in the cold, and risk being spotted by other, harsher teachers who'd then punish them for being out of lessons with no valid excuse.

Though surely tempting a coordinated effort to see how many people could get on top of the filing cabinet?

He had a number of filing cabinets... I only ever saw two filled simultaneously (two people balancing precariously usually being enough to keep everyone else in line).
Humiliation is the clearly the most effective punishment... harsh punishments such as writing 5000 lines or a physical beating, result in the pupil being commiserated by his fellow pupils, but a good quality humiliation will result in everyone taking the piss.
