Certainly all Victorian schools had corporal punishment, but the cane did not come into vogue as the favourite implement until the later Victorian period from about 1870 onwards. During the early Victorian era, 1837 - 1870 the birch was the favoured implement, especially at the great public and boarding schools. By the end of the Victorian era, in the early 1900s, the birch had largely fallen into disuse, and the cane reigned supreme as the implement for corporal punishment in virtually all schools.
