Synopsis

A male reception teacher, a male nursery teacher and a male nursery nurse provide a frank account of what it's like to be a male practitioner in a female dominated workplace.
Amongst other things, the men discuss the issues they face, the highs and lows of teaching and their thoughts on why having male role models for young children is so important.
The programme also benefits from interviews with experts, headteachers, and parents who give their thoughts on the issue.
