Which is better, same-sex or mixed school?

[phtthp]

to prevent BGR problem, prefer non mixed.

Even non mixed not necessary will prevent the problem or other problems :? :? JMHO

All-boys school for my boys. I think boys learn differently from girls.

I believe that too. They have different developmental paces, interests and strengths.

hi,


just to share...
i was from co-ed pri and sec school, and didn't find the boys distracting.
In fact, I found most of them rather annoying cos they always stink after soccer, which they play during recess and before/after school, and PE.
And so, they were no distraction to me in studies :rotflmao:

And when I went to JC, the\"monks\"and \"nuns\"were like, so shy around the other gender when there mixed social activities like mass social dance, etc, and i was like \" what's the big deal\" and just went around my schoolwork and activies.

Anyway, I think BGR is safer than GGR , which i hear were rather common from my JC/uni frens from top girls' sec schools.

But I agree that statistics show that top performers through the decades have been from single-sex schools, so that is something to ponder upon.

Haven't decided for my kids yet, but for practical reasons, for primary school, as long as it's a good school, fairly convenient and not too distant to travel, doesn't matter co-ed or single-sex
Sec school will depend on their results and preferences

These days being in a same sex school doesn’t stop the students from having BGRs. They meet each other at tuition centres, batch lunches, group outings, and of course Facebook.

I prefer Co-Ed schools all the way.


My sis-in-law told me that research showed that girls perform better in an all-girls school but boys perform better in a co-ed school. True?
