When I were a lad
....... You ate what was on the plate including the bread and butter or you didn't get any pudding. If you ate the lot you'd get a gold star on the chart and 25 gold stars gave you a thrupeny voucher for the tuck shop

In Scotland the 70's primary shool dinners were pretty good, they did not only feed you but taught you table manners as well, the older kids did the running to serve the tables and you got to sit at the head of the table which was great...to this day those school dinners is why I love cabbage.
Everyone was terrified when the headmaster attended, he demanded utter silence and I remember one day he came in late and there was a lot of noisey talking going on...he produced his belt (not trousers) and began hitting one of the tables full of cutlery sending them flying in all directions...we all absolutely shat ourselves.
Great times..!!!
Same here. Also, as in morning assembly, we all stood up (and shut up) when the teachers walked in. Grace was always said before and after too.Everyone was terrified when the headmaster attended, he demanded utter silence and I remember one day he came in late and there was a lot of noisey talking going on...he produced his belt (not trousers) and began hitting one of the tables full of cutlery sending them flying in all directions...we all absolutely shat ourselves.

Of course this was back in the day when TV ended with the National Anthem and watching the white dot on the screen to disappear
