Sure, but are they explicitly discriminating against women in hiring teachers in order to increase the percentage of male teachers? Because more and more that's what's going on in tech companies (with the genders reversed).

Of course. If a man and a women apply for the same primary school teacher position with the same skill level, they will hire the man.

  But do they explicitly deny women jobs for a position where they would have hired a man? As in do men get two chances to pass an interview when women get one? Do they have blanket policies to not hire women of certain backgrounds where they do hire men of those backgrounds?

    I don't know that. But even what I described disadvantages female teachers, and rightfully so.

      Well in my company we are using those policies. And besides just because it's happening to women in other industries does not make it any less immoral.
