"The federal and state governments’ new “Be That Teacher” campaign aims to
boost enrolments in teaching degrees by raising the status of teachers.
It uses a diverse range of real teachers talking about the real impact they can
have on students’ lives. It has been praised for its authenticity, but will it
be enough to meaningfully change the way we see teachers?
My new research looks at teachers in popular TV shows and films and finds they
are often portrayed as losers or villains."
