	Description:		Several headlines recently have sparked concerns about the state of our teaching pool. Most notably, a man legally known as Taurapa has become the latest teacher found to have had a sexually inappropriate relationship with a student. Another case saw a teacher lose their registration for refusing to call a transgender student by their preferred pronouns. What is the process for disciplining our teachers, and can we be reassured that the right people are educating our children? Today on The Front Page, Damien speaks to Lesley Hoskin, chief executive of the Teaching Council and NZ Herald senior crime writer Sam Sherwood.
