The fear that the school will know if a student spends several hours in the loo each day raises the question for me --- shouldn't we want the school to know if a student is spending several hours in the loo each day?

I see this as an ends-means type of question. And I don't think the end (knowing that the student spends a lot of time in the loo, or whatever) justifies the means (the intrusion of said students personal integrity, not to mention every other students integrity) to find it out. This is quite obviously my personal belif, not some sort of universal truth.
