Getting rid of the belt in the UK schooling system is partly to blame for the rise of disrespectful jellyfish in society today. That early threat of violence weeded out the real trouble makers from the part-timers. Tbh this is a deeply overlooked factor -

That I can’t remember anybody covering before. I remember my Grandfather told me he would often get the belt for back-talking teachers or fucking around in class.

They would have to stand at the front of the class and receive X amount of belts to the hands. The number depended on the misdemeanour the pupil had committed.

Of course some teachers were stricter than others and certain sadistic people would have abused it. But consider this - when this was outlawed in 1987 (in the UK)(Scotland was 1998 for some reason)
