Think i'd be looking at why they are getting the detentions in the first place tbh. Also find it hard to believe they would be getting an hour detention for forgetting a pen.
So I thought this too until I had friends with kids starting secondary in England this year and the rules are ridiculous.

Things like 'equipment check' as they walk in the door and if they dont have the list of things specified by the school its detention. Someone I know son had taken the wrong coloured socks to P.E and they got an email about 'behaviour infringement' parent stressed out wondering what the hell has happened. Child comes home from school its a detention for wrong coloured socks.

Our schools dont have detention and boy am I glad because Id be that parent if they even tried to punish for something stupid.

I forget to take stuff to work all the time. The world doesnt end. 🙄

Our high school do detention but usually used for more serious things. Forgetting items is only classed as a negative, if done repeatedly then I guess it would possibly lead to detention eventually. Must be a very strict school that they go to.

So this has just appeared on our local Facebook page ( local to Wakefield!) cat found wandering but it’s a rag doll and they don’t normally roam freely so asking if anyone is missing it. Upon reading the comments, lol, it transpires where it has been found is at the end of Trashlies road, mmm , has Rocco done a runner, away from the mad woman 😂. The comments do say owner now found. I’m sure there will be a whole post about this.
That’s the most hirstute Siamese cat I’ve ever seen…!
