Female Teachers and The Teaching of Boys

[zanzibarmum]

I know the teachers on the site will not agree but does the largely female (most single with no kids?) teaching force struggle to understand our boys and engage them in learning. What are the views of parents.
As a mum of both girls and boys my experience is that many normal, well behaved boys get a raw deal from some of the teachers though it is not of course something you raise with teachers for fear of getting your head bitten off - I know my own sister who's a teacher had a go! Views

Thanks Pointy and Amey.

Not at all to do with the teaching of boys/girls really but I went back to work today after two days of absence and it was the Yr 10 boys who asked how I was and seemed most pleased to see me! Not sure what that proves if anything but they were very sweet!
