Cochrane Review on Single-Sex Schooling

The Cochrane Review on single-sex schooling examines whether attending separate schools for boys and girls impacts educational outcomes, such as academic performance and social skills. This comprehensive analysis considers various studies to determine if single-sex education offers advantages over co-educational settings. The review concludes that there is little evidence to support the notion that single-sex schooling significantly improves student performance. Instead, factors like teaching quality and school resources are more crucial. Overall, it suggests that both single-sex and co-educational schools can be effective, depending on the context and individual student needs.
