Now you can't even push a disruptive student out of a classroom without them threatening to get their particular adult up the school.The brightest and best student's education is being held hostage by these lazy and uncooperative louts.
If corporal punishment is not to be used then I think it is the parents who must face discipline if their children WON'T behave in class.A fine or two might work.Just like the ones when a parent doesn't stop their child truanting and are taken to court.

The cane/slipper and various other methods of corporal punishment were used in my school (around 18+ years ago), one particular student laughed at the headmaster after receiving a good caning, he went on to commit armed robbery 5 years after leaving school and did a good stretch inside. Another student decided it was better to kick the games teacher half to death just in case, the teachers used to go around in pairs for fear of getting knifed ... all this (and worse) in a school that used corporal punishment.
