I remember an unruly student who got slapped by the woman teacher so hard he had to walk sideways for a week.
Another teen was tormenting a younger kid on the bus and the driver stopped and THREW (And I do mean threw)the teen off an made him walk several miles home.
But then that was in the early 1950s and 1960s when discipline was rigorously enforced.
My kids were enrolled in a Baptist church school, to off set part of their tuition, I drove a church/school bus. The Pastor/principal was showing me my bus. Inside right by the driver’s seat and in plain view of every kid getting on the bus, was a paddle. The principal told me that if I needed to use it, find a safe place to pull over and use it.
I never had to use it. Those were well behaved kids.
