Nowadays, in most of the country there is the possibility for children to attend either single-sex schools or co-educational schools. In past time, male and female couldn’t go in the same school, so there were only single-sex schools and for this reason people didn’t have any choice and must send their children to that type of schools.
Consequently, now, there are more and more co-educational schools than single-sex schools which are becoming less common. Indeed, some parents don’t agree on sending their children to single-sex schools because this could cause problems in their future. Even though, single-sex schools seem to be more secure (controlled), where teachers can teach better and parents would be less worried on problems and arguments which can happen between the two different sex. Actually, these arguments are good for the development and growing of the children/prole.
For instance, in mixed school is represented the real society where people are not divided into the two sex and have to work together and collaborate. So, co-educational helps to share ideas and confront opinions among several people who will be next citizens of the world. Of course, diversity can generate fighting, but this is something that a child has to experience. (Moreover, this schools help to develop the socialization of the children and start to send them to the right way for life)
To sum up, I personally agree that children who attend single school would have some disadvantages in their future life, because society is mixed and the best time to learn how to live properly is actually childhood. In my opinion, school is a place for learning how to live with other people, for building/establish relationships and not only for memorizing topics.

The maps illustrate the major developments in the town of Springer from 1970 to the present. Overall, the city’s landscape has undergone significant transformations over this fifty-year period, marked by numerous changes and the introduction of new amenities. In 1970, Springer was primarily a rural area, characterized by a vast forest, large farmland, and only a few buildings, including two houses and one shop. However, the town has experienced dramatic changes over the years. Notably, much of the forest was cleared to make way for various new facilities. A school was built at the town’s center, surrounded by numerous shops. In the top right-hand corner, an airport was constructed, located near a small remaining portion of the forest, as well as some flats above the shops. The large farmland from 1970 was reduced significantly to accommodate additional apartments and new housing. Moreover, there has been a marked increase in the number of roads connecting the buildings compared to the 1970 layout (disposition). Despite these developments, some green spaces from the original forest remain, particularly a stretch of greenery along the western edge of the town. In conclusion, Springer has been transformed dramatically from a rural settlement in 1970 to a more urbanized area today.
