Throughout England, Scotland and Northumberland, independent schools are attempting to launch a process that will increase the number of men in the teaching profession. For a long time, most of the school teachers have been women, and the administrators are concerned that the male students are missing out in the important influence that male teachers would have in not only their education, but in their lives as well. The Training and Development Agency for the UK schools will be holding sessions, and hosting events for men throughout the week, in hopes that the men will see the benefits to pursuing work in the academic field as primary school teachers. During the past one hundred years, there has been a dearth of men on the staff in schools, and while the numbers of applicants and new male teachers is on the rise for the first time, it is just not enough.

The chief executive for the Agency states that he is not anti-female staff, which some have alleged he was. As far as the teachers now, all of them are trained in ways to discipline school children, and that education of children is more encompassing than just the achievements academically attained, that education should prepare children for life as well. It should prepare the children for adulthood, and that have the sufficient number of male staff, will further enhance the male role models that these boys need to have. And that currently, the classrooms are not representative of society and the number of men that would be great teachers, is a population that is being under used. Boys and girls learn differently, and in surveys it was demonstrated that when asked, the girls didn’t really care one way or the other about male teachers, however boys cared. The boys stated that the male teachers had a better idea of what they themselves liked to do. They teach in a way, going out and doing things, that boys can relate to and understand. After all, the men were once boys as well.
