    The key issue on school discipline is whether parents will back the school when little Johnny has been caught smoking behind the bike sheds. Nowadays it's quite likely that an angry parent will back the child. That does not help school discipline in general or classroom discipline in particular.

    Whether sanctions applied are corporal or designed to embarrass is irrelevant. Without parental support school authorities are impotent and any sanctions will fail.
