Schools Mixed vs Single Sex Schools - the Debate

No one school is going to be right for every child. By opting for education in the independent sector, you are able to choose whether a single sex school or a mixed school would most suit your child. We asked three local independent schools to give their view on the benefits of their model. Firstly we hear from all boys school Cranmore, secondly from Barfield which is a mixed school and finally from The Royal School, which is introducing a Diamond model.

Benefits of single sex education development and maturity include hearing, play how certain subjects are viewed; classification behaviour, reactions to stress, ability to express of subjects or activities as for ‘nerds’ or too Choosing the right feelings, behaviour in the classroom and overall ‘girlie’ is avoided, so girls may be keener to study school for your child approach to learning.
