Synopsis
What reall goes on in the staff room

On paper, it looks like the ideal job – how hard can it be to work short days, take long holidays and look after a group of kids all day? Then there’s the reality... Teachers is the story of a man, any man, and his mid-life crisis - despite the fact that he is only 27. Not wishing to commit to relationships, career or even consistency, he relies on excuses, misunderstandings and paranoia to get through each day. Along for the ride are drinking mates and fellow martyrs to the education system who help him through one crisis after another giving him support, shelter, and even the occasional alibi.
