Some people think that it is better to educate boys and girls in separate schools. Others, however, believe that boys and girls benefit more from attending mixed schools. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

While

the proponents of single-sex education argue that it is more efficient to teach boys and girls in different educational establishments, the opponents believe that it is more effective to place both in the same

schools

.

Although

educating

children

in single-gender

schools

may help them focus on their studies, I believe it is better that they are trained together because

this

will get them ready for the reality of their

future

work. Single-sex education is considered a good option when choosing the types of education for

children

because it prevents adolescents from involving in love relationships, which will negatively impact their learning performances. Unless they are taught in

schools

where only single-gender students are allowed, love will be a major distraction they have to encounter unavoidably, particularly during the course of their high school time. To prevent their

children

from being disturbed by

this

kind of social interaction, many parents in highly religious countries,

such

as Saudi Arabia and Israel, choose to send their offspring to single-gender

schools

in the hope that they will solely focus on their studies.

However

, I think

this

is not a practical way to educate

children

, and mixed schooling would be a better option to prepare

children

for the

future

world of work. It is believed that when

children

are enrolled in the same school, regardless of their gender, it would greatly benefit their learning outcomes and ultimately

future

careers because they have already been trained in environments that stimulate real workplace contexts. Provided that they were assigned to work in a group, which requires interactions between male and female pupils, they would be able to practice the ways in which

future

professional duties are supposed to be carried out – discussions among diverse groups of people.

For instance

, in Australia, many state

schools

, where both boys and girls are welcome, are in high demand because parents believe that the diversity and inclusiveness that those

schools

embrace have a significant impact on their offspring’s learning and

future

employment.

Thus

, I think it is more beneficial that

children

are taught in the same school, regardless of their gender. In conclusion,

although

sending

children

to single-sex

schools

could potentially prevent them from certain distractions, I believe it is in the best interest of

children

to be taught in the same

schools

as it better prepares them for

future

employment, which normally requires knowledge and understanding of diversity and inclusivity.
