Read the text carefully then do the activities

TEXT
Nowadays , school discipline involves some form of detention or the removal of privileges .Not so long ago , however, a further option was corporal punishment – the use of a cane or leather strap, until it was abolished in state schools in 1986 , but not in independent school.
In practice , very few independent schools now use corporal punishment . Out of 1,000 schools in the independent sector , less than 1 per cent still use it to discipline pupils.
Why does this small group of schools still hang on to such an outdated form of punishment ?
We spoke to the headmistress of one such school to find out. Ms Smith still believes firmly in the use of corporal punishment . What I am doing is saying you have done wrong and giving them a smack there and then. It is immediate . I believe this is much better than what I can only describe as prolonged mental torture , » she explains.
In the opposite is Ms .Taylor, another headmistress , who believes that the use of corporal punishment brings the independent schools into disrepute . « I believe if you can’t control children other than by beating them , then you should not be in the profession. »
At this school , pupils failing to produce homework might expect detention . Smoking is met with the use of sanctions such as being grounded , the loss of privileges and regular reporting to authority.Most independent schools operate similar disciplinary procedures and parents seem to agree with this approach.
