1. Some people think that it is better to educate boys and girls in separate schools. Others, however, believe boys and girls benefits more from attending mixed schools. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
There are several opinions about the type of school for boys and girls to attend for a good education. While some people think that they should study in separate schools, I still believe that mixed schools bring more advantages for both boys and girls.
On the one hand, both boys and girls can gain some benefits when they attending separate schools for various reasons. Firstly, this kind of school will provide a unique curriculum that suits the different sexual characteristics. For instance, girls can enroll some courses that related to art such as dancing, drawing or playing musical instruments which sometimes seem bored to boys. In contrast, in a boy school, boys are taught some strong activities including sports, karate, taekwondo. Secondly, separate school attendance is one of the best ways to avoid sexual abuse which is in alarm in some countries. Girls should be protected from sexual harassment in school environment for a safe and healthy development.
On the other hand, I suppose that studying in a mixed school is much more beneficial for children. The first reason is that it creates a balance environment for sexual development. Both boys and girls have their own strengths and weaknesses, a mixed school is the place for them to realize their drawback from the other gender then improve and complete themselves. Furthermore, the world is now reaching the equality, everyone have equal opportunities no matter which gender they are. For example, girls have right to learn and play sports as boys, and vice versa, boys can learn to dance or sing if they want. A mixed school creates a favorable environment for both boys’ and girls’ entire growth. That’s reason why nowadays, this kind of school is applied in most of countries worldwide.
In conclusion, it seems to me that boys and girls should study in one school for a whole maturity although some people protect the opinion that they should enroll different schools.
