Single Sex Educational

Men have been controlling society for a long time. They have always been in the first row, have more job opportunities, and they are more likely to get the most noteworthy places in society like ministerial places. However, in the beginning of the ninetieth century women got some of their rights like, they were available to go to school and get a job outside the home, but recently women have been fighting to have their rights fully, and to prove that they are deserved to have an equitable life as men. Having single-sex education, which is segregated schools, can play a big role of improving the women status, and enhance their self-confidence. Counter to, co-educational.

There is discrimination between males and females in co-educational schools. According to Myra Sadker & David Sadker," . . . elementary and secondary teachers give far more active teaching attention to boys than girls" (1990, p.177). Females students in this delicate stages are full of energy; therefore, they need to be encouraged to succeed, get more self-confidence and to build their personalities. For sure this affect on their achievement too. That bias for boys could cause problems for girls like hate or even stop going to school. However, in single sex-education they will be dealt equally without gender issues.

Insofar as, there are different levels of understanding or evaluative feedback between males and females students. There should not be gender bias from teachers for students. Sadker & Sadker say "The pattern of evaluative feedback given to boys and girls in the classroom can result directly in girls' greater tendency to view failure feedback as indicative of their level of ability". (1990, p.179). The bias can destroy the moral of female students and destroys their ability to progress and succeed and lose their self-confidence and their ability to accomplish their goals. In addition to all the other kinds of bias, which foil their insistence too, behind schools walls that they may face like less job opportunities and fewer salaries from men.

Not only are there discrimination may happen in a classroom, but also distraction.Females teenage students in middle and secondary school stages have impulsive feelings, and not all of them can deal with their feelings well enough. Many serious problems could happen because of Impulsive feelings from students. From my own experience, even though all schools are separated in my country. When I was in the middle school one of my classmates had an abortion. She was in a relationship, and she was pregnant without anyone's knowledge. After the abortion, she stopped going to school for a year because of deterioration of her health. I think the status would be worse with more distraction and relationships in co-educational. Like more absences, drop out school and more relationships. Single-sex education can save student from all these problems.

I have studied in both co-education and single sex-school. In my opinion single-sex education is better because the study level females students single-sex education is higher than co-education, without distraction or discrimination all their focus are on their study.

"Early feminists hoped eventually to integrate men's schools as well as voting booths, and equal educational opportunities proved much easier to obtain than equal electoral rights" (Kaminer, 1998, p.22). I do not think co-educational helps women to get their rights equally in somehow. In addition to that, there is no equal educational opportunities in co-educational like the discrimination in classrooms (179). Plus M. Elizabeth Tidabil proves that females who graduated from single-sex education are more achievers in the sciences and medicine (26). Although some people think there is benefits for co-educational, actually researchers prove that the consequences are more.

Single sex-education prevent all the problems, like discrimination in the classrooms or relationship problems. Single sex-education gives female students a chance to show what they can accomplish and prove that they have the ability to achieve their goals too and have important places in the society as men, but they had no rights to appear and compete. Women have the ability to achieve their own accomplishments, but voices were not given any attention. The most important thing in single-sex education is encouraged women and give them more self-confidence to fight to have their right fully in their societies.
