Article here. Excerpt:

'The head of UCAS, Mary Curnock Cook, has suggested that male students are having their progress impeded due to a lack of male teachers. 

Her comments have been made on the same day as UCAS releasing data showing the widening gap between the sexes in higher education. 

One of her suggestions to rectify the situation is to promote teaching to men, perhaps by advertising the profession more to male students. 

She also would like to see more studies on how both male and female students learn following primary school, so the results may be used in the Government’s education policy.'
