Spoilers lie ahead, as we highlight the movie teachers we’d hate to be taught by…

The movies are full of inspirational teachers, principals and good guys.

But what about the educators youd forge notes from your parents to avoid?

Here are our suggestions…

Youve got Morgan Freeman inLean On Me.

Edward James Olmos inStand And Deliver.

Robin Williams inDead Poets Society.

Michelle Pfeiffer inDangerous Minds.

The marvellous Richard Dreyfus inMr Hollands Opus.

Even if we didnt have any to do.

MR STRICKLAND(BACK TO THE FUTURE TRILOGY)James Tolkan

Youve got a real attitude problem, McFly.

You remind me of your father when he went here.

He was a slacker, too.

For generations, Mr Strickland proved to be the nemesis in the side of the McFlys.

It was at your feet!

The film was Ken Loachs 1970 adaptation ofKes, and Glover was Mr Sugden.

Sugden was ultra-competitive, happily fouled 15-year-olds and gave Brian Glover his finest moments on the big screen.

Few teachers in cinema could ever hold a torch to him.

KITTY FARMER(DONNIE DARKO)Beth Grant

OK. Now, girls.

I want you to concentrate.

Failure is not an option.

If you feel the need to vomit up there, just swallow it.

For Kitty Farmer, appearances are everything, but she fails to see her own superficiality and fatal flaws.

PROFESSOR SNAPE(HARRY POTTER SERIES)Alan Rickman

Do I detect a flicker of fear?

One can only imagine what that must be like to endure.

Its said to be nearly unbearable to witness, but Ill do my best.

TREVOR GARFIELD(187)Samuel L Jackson

Your whole way of life is bullshit!

Not one word of homework would be handed in late, you mark our words.

And heck, hes on the side of the kids in187.

The film, incidentally, is worth digging out if youve not seen it already.

WOLTERS (MR HOLLANDS OPUS)William H Macy

You know, Im not as popular as you.

Im not anybodys favourite anything.

Thus, he comes across as cold and adversarial for much of the film.

The thought of being taught by him at any point is still not a pleasant one, however.

MR NOLAN(DEAD POETS SOCIETY)Norman Lloyd

Free thinkers at 17?

Nolan is a cold, hard fish, with little to like about him.

Norman Lloyds performance captures that perfectly.

Wed bet that none of those kids would have ever stood on their desks were Mr Nolan leaving.

As your fees have not been forthcoming ….You will be returned to the orphanage.

Mrs Appleyard is one of those hardcore headmistresses who leaves students shivering in her wake.

As long as your tuitions paid up, the worst youll face is a frosty shoulder and icy glare.

The death isnt shown and the exact cause is left to the viewer.

And to be fair, Ed Rooney ticks those boxes.

BARBARA COVETT(NOTES ON A SCANDAL)Judi Dench

Here come the local pubescent proles.

The future plumbers, shop assistants, and doubtless the odd terrorist too.

In the old days, we confiscated cigarettes and wank mags.

Now its knives and crack cocaine.

And they call it progress.

JOHN KIMBLE(KINDERGARTEN COP)Arnold Schwarzenegger

No more complaining.

No more Mr. Kimble, I have to go the bathroom.

Never mind that inKindergarten CopArnold Schwarzenegger was supposed to be a force for good.

Its small wonder that half the kids dont just start crying on the spot.

Stallone and his team of Expendables taking drama?

We suspect the novelty would wear off very quickly indeed.

HAL PETERSHAM(D.O.A.

)Daniel Stern

Yeah thats right, kill for… isnt that what its all about?

Dex has also read the purloined pages and Hal has to bump him off as well.

Dont let the mild-mannered facade fool you.

Hes a homicidal academiac.

But youre likely to have heard of actor Michael Sheard.
