While
it is sometimes thought that
students
in single-sex
schools
perform better academically, other people believe that mixed
schools
provide
children
with better social skills for adult life. In my opinion, I consider that studying in single-sex
schools
is better for the
students
to do their best in their studies. On the one hand, some people think that
children
will be able to perform well academically when they
study
separately, and I agree.
In other words
,
children
do not only feel comfortable when they are around the same gender but
also
have confidence in themselves without any feeling of shame.
For example
, in Yemen, most
schools
separate boys and girls, so the
students
will not feel shy to have any discussions in the class related to the lessons that they have learned, and
as a result
, they can understand the lesson in class clearly.
Furthermore
, when the two genders are separated, they may avoid problems,
such
as fighting, which can affect their performance in class.
On the other hand
, it is often believed that when
children
study
in the same environment, they can improve their social skills. One reason is that
children
when the two sexes studies
study
together, they will have more opportunities to communicate with each other.
For instance
, most
students
in most Western nations
study
together and

this
can eventually foster respect, understanding, and empathy between both genders.
This
is something that cannot usually be seen in the Middle East and because of that, some of them may not be able to communicate with other genders effectively, especially when they start working. Another reason is that it can help to reduce gender stereotypes and create an atmosphere of equality. In conclusion,
although
people may vary in their opinions, I think that
students
should be separated. If the government in every nation encouraged every parent to enrol their
children
in single-sex
schools
, their
children
would have a great environment with the best education system.
