Research on Single-Sex Education

Research on single-sex education examines the effects of teaching boys and girls separately. Studies explore whether this approach improves academic performance, motivation, and social skills compared to coeducational settings. While some findings suggest benefits such as increased participation and tailored teaching methods, other research indicates minimal or inconsistent differences. Factors like teaching quality, school environment, and student backgrounds also influence outcomes. Overall, the evidence is mixed, and the effectiveness of single-sex education often depends on how it is implemented and individual student needs.
