More than one third of primary schools across Cumbria have no male teachers.
There are 275 local authority primary schools across the county, but, according to figures released by the Department for Education, there are 99 primary schools across Cumbria with only female teachers.
The problem is mirrored across the country despite attempts by the previous Government to increase numbers.
The number of men working as school teachers has reached a five-year low leading to concerns about a lack of positive male role models.
