If you haven't seen it, rent the DVD Election, with Matthew Broderick and Reese Witherspoon. It's about a high school election and probably one of the best school movies of all time. It takes up the teacher / pupil role and is excellent for a discussion of morals and ethics. It's also a scary insight into how pupils set out to manipulate their teachers.

I have not seen it, but will try to get hold of it.

I definitely feel that the pupils are manipulating. However, I am probably not detecting all their attempts at manipulating. I try to be quite a firm teacher and it seems to work. I have seen how other substitute teachers are forced into the role of "Ronald McDonald" pleasing the children and having no control.

As a new teacher I often get the questions. How old are you? Are you married? Can't say I blame them. I often take a (descret) look if people are wearing a wedding ring or not :)

And yes, students can be really manipultaing sometimes.
