Some people feel that children should be educated in single sex schools; others argue that mixed schools are better. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Education is the need of the hour,

however

the environment where the child is brought up plays an important role in education and learning. In the recent time, many feel that children should be educated in co-ed school,

however

, there are some who argue that single

sex

schools are better. In my perspective, co-ed schools

provide

provides

a by far more learning experience than single

schools.

This

essay

gingerely

delineates both the viewpoints in the following paragraphs.

Firstly

, Studying amongst the same gender might make the student feel safer, as they would not be accustomed to the behaviour and varied physical attributes of the opposite

sex

.

Secondly

, puberty is considered to be the most tiring time of one's life

;

Accept space

;

it is at

this

time when everyone experience changes in terms of mental, emotional and physical appearances. Overall, children might face varied emotions which might not be understood by them,

this

in turn could lead to confusion, embarrassment and frustration.

For example

, a study of public schools in the villages of India has shown that girls in the age group of 11-16 years were more likely to quit school as they were

deeply or markedly affected or influenced

with the physical changes their body goes through during puberty.

On the other hand

, mixed gender schooling will prepare one for today's competitive world. A child who has had exposure to the opposite gender would not hesitate talking to them. It would make it easier for them to stand for themselves and put forth their opinion. Co-ed

schooling

schools

school

teaches the child to be more considerate and understanding of the opposite

sex

. They

also

learn to be respectful and accommodating. To exemplify my point

further

, a research conducted in a small city called Pune, situated in India, shows that children who studied in co-ed schools were far more likely to voice their opinion in a crowd. To recapitulate, attending a co-ed or single

sex

school equally have their positive and negative impacts.

However

, one may not outweigh the advantages of the other.
