In my last bull to pete I finished with "I am going to drop this" but that
was before i read yours.
You will agree that every school has it's bullies who will terrorise
people and prevent serious tudents from working.
We prefects were chosen for being well behaved,hard working, keeping to
the rules and enforcing them.Just like police which is what prefects were
in ancient Rome.
We were proud to be chosen. I think I was about 14 when they picked me.
I have mentioned the punishments we gave, it was only in extremis that we
resorted to physical punishment. If the bully was big, it could take as
many as three of us to cure him but we did and the scum deserved it.
We didn't make a big deal out of sports at our school though we did have a
football and a cricket team as well as athletics. Even my own sport which
got me the title of cross country captain, I didn't see as very important
as I never saw it as a team sports, just me versus up to 26 miles of open
country.
I don't think 'Student Counciles' were introduced until the 1980s, we just
got on with the job of learning and passing exams. They would call us
'nerds' or similar now, my favourite subjects were maths, physics and
biology. I'm sure you know that more scorn is poured on maths students
than
any other subject - not if you hit back though.
Oh, well, final,final as we used to say.
