I think that book, though very hyperbolically, made a very, very good point.
Teachers can really get away with damn near *anything* at my school. Teachers in my school carreer have thrown calculators at students, flirted with them, made fun of them for their weight, made fun of them for their height, flagrantly tossed around their political opinions as fact, preached creationism in social studies classes and made fun of anyone who disagreed, and traded 100's for "I <3 Boobies" bracelets, and all of this was just looked at as funny by everyone witnessing. And even if it wasn't, who cares? Who's going to believe a kid? A kid accuses a teacher of something, especially something sexual, and immediately it's not "oh, the poor kid," it's "oh, the poor teacher, this brat's trying to get him in trouble." People are always bitching and moaning about "ohh, public schools are too politically correct, when I was a lad teachers could give us a good thrashin' and we all turned out just fine I hate this stupid century" but that couldn't be further from the truth. (Or maybe my school just sucks, idk.)
I don't mean any disrespect to all the good teachers out there. I think good teachers are some of the most incredibly hardworking, influential, important people there are and I really look up to them. Bad teachers

* Bad teachers, however, really do get away with a lot. Not as bad as in Matilda, of course, but the situation in that book was reality, at least my school reality, taken to it's naturally silly Dahl-ian extreme.
