In my opinion, no. At my school, for the people who are punished regularly, a punishment exercise is nothing importanrt. Some even fail to complete it. I suppose it depends on the behaviour in the school and the respect that pupils have towards teachers.
Australian state schools (public schools) do not use corporal punishment. A tiny number of independent schools still use corporal punishment, with the agreement of the parents.
Indulgences can be earned by doing certain spiritual exercises, such as pilgrimages, to lessen the punishment for sins.
THE CANE!
ya gay
Corporal Punishment was never completely banned. It is however banned in schools to some extent, only principals and the administrators are allowed to use corporal punishment in the schools. Teachers are forbidden to do so.
It is not normal now, as it was banned in 1987 for state schools and 1999 for private schools. Going back in history though, it was very normal. From medieval to Victorian times it was an everyday occurrance in most schools.
No, they should not!
Corporal punishment in schools (generally punishment administered across the buttocks or on the hands with a paddle or yardstick) was certainly legal in all U.S. and U.K. schools in 1968. It was not banned in many states until the 1990s or later, and in some U.S. states (particularly Southern ones), it is still not illegal. The U.K. gradually banned corporal punishment over a period of time beginning in the late 1980s and stretching into the early 2000s.
Corporal punishment remained legal in UK schools throughout the Victorian era. It was therefore not banned during the Victorian period. It was not banned until 1987.
Corporal punishment is now OUTLAWED in ALL UK schools.
The belt, a form of corporal punishment in schools, was officially banned in Scotland in 1987. This ban was part of a larger movement to end physical punishment in schools and promote more positive forms of discipline.
This varies from state to state, and whether or not the school is a state school or a private school.Legislation to ban corporal punishment in all state schools was introduced in New South Wales in 1990, and this extended to private schools in 1997.It was banned in the ACT in 1997, and although the legislation states it is banned in "all schools", it does not explicitly include private schools.Tasmania banned corporal punishment in both public and private schools in 1999.Victoria first banned corporal punishment in public schools in 1989, and this extended to non-government schools in 2006.Queensland banned corporal punishment in state schools in 1995, but it is still legal in private schools.Corporal punishment in government schools in South Australia ended in 1991, but there are still moves to ban it in non-government schools. Interestingly, the legislation covering corporal punishment in both SA and Qld state schools is not actually legally binding, according to a paper published in May 2010.Western Australia abolished corporal punishment in state schools in 1999, but this does not extend to students in private schools.Corporal punishment is not explicitly banned in the Northern Territory, but there are moves in this direction.
