Corporal punishment in schools (generally punishment administered across the buttocks or on the hands with a paddle or yardstick) was certainly legal in all U.S. and U.K. schools in 1968. It was not banned in many states until the 1990s or later, and in some U.S. states (particularly Southern ones), it is still not illegal. The U.K. gradually banned corporal punishment over a period of time beginning in the late 1980s and stretching into the early 2000s.
