Well,from an academic educational point of view, corporal punishment could be practiced in specific conditions, by specific persons and in a specific manner. Anyway, from my experience as a teacher, I practiced it at the beginning of my career, when I was not yet prepared to be a teacher; and it was more painful and suffering for me, than for my students; but it was the trend at that time. Thanks to God, I discovered early, that teaching is power and other ways of reinforcement are more effective than corporal punishment. Teaching is a blessing that should not be polluted with corporal punishment.
No.. I don't think bringing corporal punishment to school would want a child to come back. In most states that is against the law, the school would get sued as well as the teacher losing their license to teach.
I know this is still happening in some Arab countries (mostly boys schools) but it is wrong. As a parent I would not like for my child's teacher to put his or her hands on him. If there is a problem both parents or guardian should be called to rectify the issue, the principal can then take on any further action if needed.
