    teachers analysis

    camera angles;
    there was a three shot of the men leering at jenny, this shows that they are sexist, and represents men as all being all the same, and also represents that the three of them all have the same levels of maturity.
    another camera angle that they use, is whilst the teacher (simon) and the school kid are out having a cigerette, they zoom in on the cigerette to show that again simon is trying to be just like the child. and that his maturity and responsibiltity levels are no different to the students.
