Not always. Turkish and Greek kids are like ours. You get good ones and you get bad ones.

All teachers got respect from the pupils, l always remember we had a teacher called David Cocup who was a PE teacher, who had his own form, and one day in the playground, a elder boy hit him with a cricket bat, with a great force, and instead of pupils laughing and shouting out ' bundle ', the pupils turned on the kid, who was known as the school hardnut, and gave him what for.
Yes they di have school punishment, and you knew it.

I have to admit, while they didn't use the Cane or slipper at my school, they did have strict discipline. While my School was far from perfect (I suffered bullying due to my voice and when I reported it was told that it would be character building for me to deal with it and that the school would do nothing), and there were kids that tried it on, we had no serious problems.
Why? Because we knew that if we caused serious problems, we would be sent to either the head of school, deputy head or head of department. All of whom would punish us. Usually by making us perform a boring or horrible task (our head of science always had us clean his rugby boots inside and out for instance) and would stand over us while we did it.
