11. Teachers had better start dressing in gender neutral clothes too.

Just to avoid any gender specific stereotypes, and any inferences kids can draw from that.

Baggy jeans, baggy tops, trainers for shoes, mid length neutral hair styles, no makeup, and girls - lower the pitch of your voice - guys, do the opposite!

Aww, this could be fun!

Parent to kid: Who is your teacher this year?
Kid: Goes by the name of 'teacher number 231' and no other, no idea if male or female though. I've asked, but it's a taboo topic it seems.

Parent (squinty, suspicious eyes): Keep an eye open. See which staff toilet they go into.
Kid (sad eyes): Liked Miss Smith last year more. She smiled a lot! This one doesn't.
