Here are some of the possible advantages of single-sex education:

1. Female students are more likely to participate. Without dominant guys monopolizing class discussions, the girls may feel bolder and less self-conscious to participate.

2. Education is more likely to occur despite such a society that puts so much emphasis on having sex. So this societal distraction is removed in gender segregated schools.

3. There are less likely to be sexual assaults between students of the opposite sex. However, gender segregated education won't stop same-sex student assaults nor statutory rape between faculty and students.

4. There won't be any bullying between students of the opposite sex.

5. Classroom content can be more finely tuned to the interests of the students. Class discussions can be more heartfelt for the girls and more active and competitive for the boys, all without alienating half the class.

6. There will be no competition between the genders, no flirting between students of the opposite sex, and no students doing foolish things to try to impress members of the other sex. So no boys beating up each other over girls (or the other way around), nobody bullying to try to impress students of the other sex, etc.

7. Sexist punishments won't be handed down to students. A number of schools two decades ago would arbitrarily punish half the student body by gender.

8. Students might be more secure in themselves and their gender identity. They will have more time focusing on themselves and relating to persons of their own gender before being thrust into adult sexual roles.

Should coed schools be abolished?

Unfortunately, that would do a great harm to the social structure of our teens. If there were NO coed schools, the relationships and development that occurs during primary and secondary education due to peer relations would drastically alter. While its perfectly OK for some schools to not be coed, to completely alter the school system to follow that model would be devastating.
