Miss Black­stock­ís Diaries:

Liv­ing in a build­ing that was a boysí school for more than a hun­dred years, from the mid­dle of the nine­teenth cen­tu­ry to the 1970s, I have often thought that, if these walls could talk, they would have some extra­or­di­nary sto­ries to tell ñ most of them end­ing with thwack­ing sounds, hot tears and a very sore bottom.
Imag­ine my sur­prise, and delight, when I came across a moth-eat­en old diary in a cup­board in my flat. The entries main­ly date from the 1950s and 1960s and, judg­ing by the con­tent, were writ­ten by the woman who was head­mistress at the time ñ Miss Mar­jorie Black­stock M.A. (Oxon), accord­ing to my researches.
She must have been a remark­able lady, not just to have been made head of an all-boys sec­ondary school, but to be entrust­ed with dis­ci­pli­nary respon­si­bil­i­ties that would nor­mal­ly have fall­en to a male teacher.
Most of her diary entries are about the day-to-day busi­ness of the school and will have lit­tle inter­est for users of this site. But there are some I would like to share, if only because they cap­ture the atti­tudes of the time ñ and what some would call the kinks of the time ñ so faith­ful­ly. The diary makes abun­dant­ly clear that the redoubtable Miss Black­stock not only used cor­po­ral pun­ish­ment, which was pret­ty much uni­ver­sal prac­tice at the time, but deployed the strap, cane and oth­er imple­ments of chas­tise­ment with the utmost relish.
As and when I have time off from my own dis­ci­pli­nary duties, I will be tran­scrib­ing some of the more eye-open­ing diary entries on this page.

To be continued.….
