My best ever pun (still not very good)
Back in my days as a teacher - old headmaster retires and we get a new headmistress. Within a few weeks of her regime she had introduced loads of daft, unworkable ideas in the name of "progressive" education. Needless to say the school plummeted from being a decent comprehensive into a war zone in the space of a year, after which she was taken off to the funny farm.

Anyway, one of her ideas was to abolish school bells. Senior respected teachers pointed out that this gave the kids (and some of the staff) carte blanche to turn up to class whenever they liked, if at all. Her response was that the lack of bells would establish an atmosphere of peace and calm in the school. After much discussion, I made my contribution:

"Does that mean we'll get a No-bell Peace Prize then?"

Well, it seemed funny at the time. I left the school soon after.
