Catholic schools in the 80’s did not have corporal punishment (certainly not the one I attended for a few years). I think that was something from an earlier time period.

Happened to me in the 90s. Private Christian school in a big city.

in my country, corporal punishment in school was abolished by law in 2004. i did elementary in the 80s, but the strap was not used that i can recall. kids were threatened with it, but i don’t think anyone got smacked. however, many people of my parents’ generation have told me that the strap was extremely common. my father in law used to get strapped for speaking german at school, among other things (saskatchewan, 50s / 60s).
