GCSEs in leech application, trepanning and applied ducking stool design have all rightly gone the way of the dinosaur.

Students will be tutored in how to wear next to nothing and rotate round a metal pole in the manner of a randy fireman.

‘People will realise what great exercise it is and that it’s not just for doing late at night in a club,’ says she knowingly.
