Paedophile hysteria preventing men applying to work in primary schools

Paranoia about paedophiles is stopping men working in primary schools,

I should have thought the same would apply to secondary school
teachers. Although many secondary school pupils are biologically men
and women, they are still regarded as children till they are 18 by the
law.
