I am about to start teaching on a course called 'Film and Education'. It is concerned with how film has represented teachers, schools and education. It is based on the belief that it is possible to learn about many of the issues that surround education through watching films.
Often teachers have been represented as charismatic figures who have the means to tackle all the problems that school students face, forming special relationships with them and persuading those in the toughest of circumstances to make the right choices in school and in life.
What's your favorite film about school?
