It is increasingly becoming a matter of concern whether or not children should be enrolled in single-sex educational institutes for their development. I partly agree with
this
To begin
with, single-sex
schools
are generally known to yield very brilliant
students
.
This
is because the wards are able to focus well on solely
school
work. It is obvious from their environment that there is elimination of distraction from the opposite sex and
thus
the trainees are able to channel their energies to the grooming standards of the
school
. To illustrate
this
, it is very common to see only
students
from single-sex
schools
partake in national competition programs in Ghana. The commonest
beingChange the form of the verb

the National Science and Maths quiz for senior high
school
students
. The emerging winners from
such
quizzes are not surprisingly mostly from
such
educational complexes. Another factor worth mentioning is, that the products of
such
schools
are often seen as gentle men and well-groomed ladies of society.
This
is because, by virtue of gender similarity it becomes easier for each individual to learn one thing or the other from other members.
Also
, the
schools
mostly groom their
students
to meet particular standards required of
for example
ladies or gentlemen of society.
For instance
, whilst at St. Mary's
school
which solely admits females for secondary education, I quite remember there being extracurricular sessions as part of our daily timetable that only taught us mannerisms like eating, public speaking, walking and how to even dress. These techniques equipped me to behave in accordance with the status quo for well-behaved ladies in society.
Hence
, I will agree that
such
schools
should be recommended.
On the other hand
, the creation of
this
world has made it natural for males to co-exist with females. In spite of a person's educational background, real life has it
such
that, a man will have to interact with a woman in most of the activities pertaining to our daily lives
such
as at church, university training, work, and market to mention a few. Mixed
schools
undoubtedly have the added advantage of being better with human interaction.
This
is because their environment is enabling and a female student will have to learn to cope in the same academic atmosphere as males. Studies by Sir Williams at various working firms revealed that it is easier for products of mixed
schools
to relate well with their co-workers compared to their single-sex
school
attendees counterparts.
However
, a disturbing reason most parents opt for single-sex
schools
for their wards is that Ghana's statistics show most cases of teenage pregnancies arise in non-gender-biased
schools
. Meanwhile, the aim of
such
facilities is (is not

) to educate and not to truncate one's destiny with
such
unfortunate news. It is evident here, why most people are against
such
training facilities and I can understand them.
To sum up
,
it is clear that
,
although
single-sex
schools
have an upper hand in what they produce, mixed
schools
equally have some unique benefits that can never be acquired by

Therefore
