some people think that students in single-sex schools perform better academically. Others, however, believe that mixed schools provide children with better social skills for adult life. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Two types of
schools
including same-gender schools
like all-boy schools
or mixed ones
are viewed to benefit differently. While the former ones
are understood to contain superior academic elements, the latter ones
are known to offer life skills such
as socialising ones
. This
essay will discuss how each school
has their own specialities and why I believe that both types are beneficial.
To begin
with, same-sex schools
have their main focus on pupils
academic performance and responsibilities. Since the Change noun form

schools
always set their rules and schedules tight, they are strict when it comes to their students
' behaviours and academic potential. For example
, a renowned girl school
named Saint Joseph Convent in Bangkok, Thailand are known to offer not only a wide range of classes but also
quality ones
. Its previous students
have gotten into high-ranking universities around the world. Moreover
, most of the students
are not distracted by the opposite sex thus
they could concentrate on their academics.
However
, unisex schools
allow children to enjoy more activities and are taught to blend with each other. This
is because schools
are composed of students
from distinct backgrounds namely gender, preferences and interests. Children could then
experience wider opportunities in terms of activities and are able to develop various skills including interpersonal ones
. From my personal experience, i
had studied in a mixed Change the capitalization

my entire life, compared to my female friend from a girl school
, I could approach those from different gender more easily and have more common activities like outdoor sports. By studying in a mixed environment, social skills could be formed slowly but gradually within them. Pupils will eventually have more courage in conversing and befriending others.
In conclusion, mixed schools
offer their students
wider opportunities in terms of socialising with others despite their genders, while single-sex schools
provide rich education and firm rules.Submitted by poonpunchy on
