should kids go to co-educational schools?

Should kids go to co-educational schools ?

Would you want to go to a school with only boys or girls ?  for example Kids that go to a co educational school can get distracted by each other sometimes they bully each other and girls sometimes don’t feel comfortable around boys.

Single sex schools are better because girls and boys won’t get distracted by each other. For example, if you are a girl and you go to a co-educational school you would get distracted by boys. Because some boys can be a bit silly and would start to muck around and be a bit fiddly. Girls could just talk too much and spread rumors around about boys.

Another reason why single sex schools are better for your child is that girls and boys won’t bully each other. For example boys could bully girls by judging the way they look and girls would do the same thing to boys. So the girls and boys would start to wear appropriate clothes to impress each other so they wouldn't get judged by each other.

Why girls should go to single sex schools, single sex schools are good for girls because some girls around the world don’t feel comftable around boys. For example, some girls don’t feel comfortable around boys because they don’t feel safe and some parents don’t let their daughters around boys.

Single sex schools are better because boys and girls won’t bully and distract each other, girls and boys won’t need to care about how they look and girls will feel safe and comftable.
