[QUOTE="rapparee, post: 468624, member: 27942"] Well corporal punishment was banned whenever I was at school so I can't comment on that. Also we were taught by lay teachers who were pretty normal, the brothers were all old men in the twilight of their lives who lived in the attached monastery, they would call in for a visit now and again but never anything sinister. There was one young man Fra Joe who taught religion, he ended up quitting the Brotherhood for a woman. I think he broke up with the woman in later life and then retrained as a priest. Also the vice principal was an ex-priest who gave up his vocation to marry a woman. I personally think Grammar Schools are a meritocracy where brighter children from working/middle class backgrounds can access education which rivals the fee paying English Public School system.
