Fagging
Fagging was a traditional practice in British boarding
private schools (nearly all "
public schools" in the English sense) and also many other
boarding schools, whereby younger pupils were required to act as personal servants to the most senior boys. While domestic servants were common in family households, the custom reflected household task distribution and taught pupils about service from both ends of the relationship. Under school rules, fagging might entail harsh discipline and
corporal punishment when those were standard practices.
