In primary school in England (1950's) when we had to dip our pens in inkwells, if you left any blotches on the page, you got the cane. This happened to me countless times as an eight year old until I learnt to control the pen. And they forced left handers to write with their right hand.

Later in High School in Canberra as a 14 yr old, I got six of the best ( across the fingers) for smoking in the toilets.

Fun days they were.
