| Description: | Same as catalog # 521442 SCHOOL PUNISHMENT Punishment of school children makes headlines. (education, corporal punishment, beating, violence, sadism, teachers, headmasters) DO NOT USE: CUs Newspaper headlines from the late 1960s reporting punishment in British schools. Starts out with "'Speaking as one who does wield the cane...': Letter from a North Country Headmaster." And "caning" is the most popular punishment. Further headlines report "mass canings", "violence", "brutality". Also there are some stories about headhmasters being sued for violent canings, and attempts to ban caning. So in response there's "Heads defend right to cane." There are references to other more unusual punishments- -something involving a bucket of urine, a 7-year-old girl being tied up, etc. etc. | |
