Description: | Brown leather tawse used on boys at Stanley Road Junior School. The tawse is a long piece of leather, with a rounded piece at one end. At the other end the leather has been split to produce three tails. On the reverse in red ink is written "FORM 1". Note attached to the item reads "Strap or tawse - used formerly for punishing children in school. Will probably be of value in time. Used fairly freely until about 1965." This was written by the donor's father, Jack Priest, who was headmaster at the school from 1957 to the mid 1970s.
