We had a head teacher who had no qualms about using the cane or a half metre wooden ruler, his little twist was to issue summons on the Monday assembly to miscreants who then had to go to his office for 3 or 6 on the arse, at a time of their choice before Friday at 3.10pm.
The real idiots used to put it off and stew all week, the less dim-witted went sooner to get it over with.
