One feature I would love to see with this game in the future is a corruption stat for the protagonist. Hear me out! (feature proposal tedtalk incoming)
tl;dr synopsis sorta thing:
-~-
Problem: It's rather easy currently to avoid dealing with the PTA entirely by simply interacting with students enough to raise their corruption levels, which ultimately makes some saves end with the PTA absolutely hating you, but all of your students being completely corrupted, showing up to class naked on their own, and being generally up for anything.
Solution: Give the playable character a corruption stat. Lewd interactions with students can now be unlocked by (1) raising the MC corruption stat, (2) getting the PTA to vote in your favor and unlocking new Free Use rules through votes, or (3) a mixture of both

I like the current implementation of "reported actions" for things that have not yet been approved by the PTA--this is good as it gives a sense of progression to the game. However, I think adding a corruption stat to the protagonist could potentially take this one step further...
Give the MC a corruption stat, starting at 0 and going up to 100. At 0 corruption, the player would be unable to perform lewd actions against any students (options greyed out). Every basic interaction with a student could have a chance to raise corruption, and students entering the exam classroom with more revealing clothing could also have a small chance at increasing MC's corruption (incentivizing having a sluttier girl on your early game roster). At each major stage of corruption increase, further interactions would unlock. It could look something like:
0 = Disturbing the girls (the teaching action on right panel during exam), Flirting in school hallway
10 = Touching legs
20 = Groping breasts and butt, Sock layer removal
30 = "Playfully slapping" actions, Overshirt (hoodie) layer removal
40 = Teasing + pinching actions, Shirt layer removal
50 = Spanking actions, Pants layer removal
60 = Kissing actions, Bra and underwear layer removal
70 = Fingering actions
80 = Oral actions (Lick her pussy, Use her mouth, Cum on face)
90 = Sex actions
100 = Anal sex and all remaining actions unlocked (not sure if I'm forgetting anything else)
Obviously this would need balancing, and maybe additional new simple interactions for the lower levels like Ogling or Staring at the students for the 0-20 level area (for example: "You stare at StudentXYZ's breasts while she works on the exam. She gets tense as she catches you looking at her cleavage.")
Unlocking rules in the PTA would unlock those interactions for the player as usual. So even if the protagonist's corruption is still level 0, if the player gets the PTA to agree to the "Free Use Law: Act 2" rule, then it would unlock the actions in that rule also (kissing, groping, innerthigh). If players want to skip the MC corruption stat leveling, they can, and they'll still unlock all actions through normal progression.
Players could go for a corrupted teacher playthrough where their goal is to get the MC to max corruption and corrupt students directly (risking infractions, angering the PTA, and loss of prestige), or they could try win over the PTA to unlock all sexual actions and corrupt students "properly" -- or a mix of both.

This would of course change up the game loop in some ways, so perhaps it would be best to test out a more basic version of this through mods or something. I think it could add a lot of extra depth and variety to the game, though. Anyways, I've been kicking around an idea like this in my head when I play WTM lately and just figured I'd mention it.
EDIT: Formatting, layout, readability, etc
