Corporal punishment still used in schools?

I grew up in a culture where corporal punishment was used widely in schools. I now live in the UK where corporal punishment has been illegal in all schools (private and state) for years. How many countries are there where school corporal punishment is still common?

Not onky is corporal punishment still allowed in parts of the US, Trial by Combat has never been abolished. It doesn't fall under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court so the courts under it can't rule against it.
