The fate of boys “is a defining issue of our time”, according to the education secretary, Bridget Phillipson, as she calls for more men to become teachers to combat “toxic” behaviours.
since 2010 the number of teachers in our schools has increased by 28,000 – but just 533 of those are men
Do you think this is an issue? Decades ago, boys would have been taught by male teachers, so today’s female teachers are a change from the past.
Lets see a source.
Because having to avoid violance or sexual inappropriate behavior is not unique to men.
Not being able to is very much a rile model issue.
And failiure to address false claims is abain down to leadership. While our nations leaders have been mostly men. So again not a great exaply of male role models.
Remember my statement was non of these issues point to quality role models from men. Not they dont exist.
You’ve imagined a whole set of problems totally at odds with reality.
The problems are mostly around exclusion, by other staff and parents.
Parents speaking to the female teacher and trusting them over the male one, and children copying this behaviour etc.
And you are imagining prejudice with 0 actual evidence supporting it.
Unfortunately you are not actually alone. Hence my point.
Honestly show me any documented/data backed evidence on this that is not people expressing personal opinions. And consider the effect those opinions have on thier quality as a role model.
