In an ambitious new series, Gareth Malone teaches in a primary school for one term. His mission is to re-engage boys who don't like school and who, like many across Britain, lag behind their female peers. His method is to bring risk, competition and adventure back to the classroom. Known for his previous successes as a choirmaster in The Choir, Gareth treats the school classroom as a new challenge.
In the first episode Gareth joins the staff at a primary in Essex, an ordinary school where, like thousands of others across Britain, there's a gap between girls' and boys' achievement in speaking, reading and writing.
Gareth decides that before the boys can learn anything, they need to be excited about school. So his pupils spend the school day outdoors, climbing trees, building their own outdoor classroom, and playing rough and tumble competitive games.
Gareth succeeds in getting the boys excited about being in school, but can he actually get them to learn? His initial challenge is to try and improve their speaking skills, which he attempts by staging a boys versus girls debate competition. Will the boys rise to the challenge?

Instead of whining and crying about feminism, we should all take a leaf out of Gareth Malone's book and take it upon ourselves to provide boys with more positive male role models. Gareth Malone is a real man...a man of action rather than a sullen boy who responds to frustration by finding people to blame. Please, since you feel so strongly about this topic, I urge you to become a teacher (if you are not one already), since we so desperately need more males in education!!

The major problem I see is the teachers are negative about the boys generally. It shows a lack of imagination and willingness to solve a problem simply because they are boys. If it was a problem involving girls education, I'm betting they'd be much more creative and positive. The idea that boys are difficult or a problem is a general community perception based on a systematic feminist campaign. I think it's a form of bigotry. There needs to be more men in schools to counteract this.

Ok. I'm not so annoyed anymore. This is good stuff.
There needs to more of this. I'm beginning to think that in most cases boys and girls should be taught separately. There should be serious and unbiased research into this subject. Not one that panders to the hysterics and lies of a female-centric feminist ideology.

It is a good surprise to see that schools actually even acknowledge that there is a problem with boys education and even more surprising that they are prepared to do something about it.
But I'm annoyed within the first 3 minutes. The boys are regurgitating the feminist rubbish that has been instilled in them. "Girls knuckle down more." "Girls are smarter", etc. When you are told a lie long enough (and young enough) you will believe almost anything. Feminism has a lot to answer for.
