I cant think of anything that can be done to improve it because (like you) I do not know the reason for the low figure. If its because men are being turned down, then theres a problem. If its because they just do not want to do the job and would rather teach older kids, then there is not a problem. We don't know which it is.

I dont give a stuff about women being under represented in any job. I have already said this with your parliament argument I think as long as someone does a job properly, it doesn't matter what genitalia they have.

2% facts too? hello?

you have no facts at all.

I agree about meritocracy. However if our society demands more equal representation in all walks of life from parliament to boardrooms and beyond, then it should work both ways where men are scandalously under represented
