1. Some children thrive in an environment which has members of the same gender while some children do better in a coed school. It really depends on how you raise your children and how they adjust to different environments. Below are some advantages of sending your children to a single-gender school:Many single-sex schools can be more relaxing for boys and girls as they don’t have social pressures to worry about, such as impressing the opposite gender. They can be themselves in classrooms and can speak out openly and honestly. They will be more willing to take risks because they won’t have to worry about saving face in front of the opposite gender. Usually, the environments in single-sex classrooms are buzzing with constant talking and ideas. Everyone contributes freely in discussions whereas sometimes in coed schools, students have to be coerced to take part in class discussions. Also, the feelings of strong brotherhood or sisterhood are nurtured in a single-sex environment. Single-sex schools, particularly girls’ schools, have lesser cliques. They do not have to worry about being seen as popular or impressing boys, which allows them to focus on their studies and forge good friendships with other girls. Similarly, in boys’ schools, the pressure of appearing cool in front of girls is reduced, and hence children tend to be more generous towards their peers and less prone to forming groups that exclude others.If there are so many pros of single-sex education, there have to be a few cons as well. Here are a few single-gender education disadvantages:Girls and boys in single-sex schools may miss out on learning how to socialise with the opposite gender, which can lead them to feel shy or uncomfortable meeting their counterparts outside school. When they face other children of the opposite gender, they don’t always know how to react, as they are unfamiliar with the environment. Coed schools give opportunities for girls and boys to become true friends with each other and create a foundation for supportive relationships with the opposite sex. Opportunities like these are not available in single-sex schools.
