The bolded is the point, though. Those students received some sort of compensation for their duties. It wasn't used as a punishment. Your (general) school curriculum doesn't consist of learning and other duties as assigned.

Some schools still include discipline and respect as part of the educational experience. When you lack discipline and respect for your teachers, there ought to be painful consequences. In the past, that meant corporal punishment, now it means cleaning up disgusting stuff--typically, starting early in the morning on a weekend.
