Humphrey Searle’s memoirs describe the early morning routine at the school that he attended:

Before 9a.m. the boys were lined up, in school order, round the walls of the gymnasium. Precisely on the stroke of the hour the entire teaching staff would appear in academic robes, headed by the headmaster, Mr. J.S. Granville Grenfell, a stocky figure of somewhat nautical appearance with a small pointed beard. He would say: “Good morning, gentlemen”…

He would then read out rewards and punishments for the day. If any boy was to be caned Mr. Grenfell would point his finger at him and say: “Boy, go to my study and await my presence”. The double doors were flung open and the wretched boy would totter out.

Mentally substituting the boys with girls creates a fascinating idea for a scene. That said, it might not actually work, since one would presumably wish to send all of the girls out of the assembly hall, and that’s not quite the point…
