At Repton School, as in many British boarding schools, corporal punishment, including caning, was used as a disciplinary measure to maintain order and instill discipline among students. The belief was that physical punishment would deter misbehavior and promote a sense of responsibility. This practice reflected the educational philosophies of the time, which emphasized strict discipline and obedience. However, attitudes towards corporal punishment have changed significantly, and it has been abolished in most educational institutions today.
