Feel the Spirit
For both girls and boys, co-education provides a more realistic
way of training young people to take their places naturally in the
wider community of men and women. It helps to break down
the misconceptions of each sex about the other and provides an
excellent foundation for the development of realistic, meaningful
and lasting relationships in later life.
We live in a co-ed world – let’s learn in one too!
Co-educational schools more accurately reflect the diversity of
our society. They help students gain confidence communicating
and interacting with a broader range of people, and provide them
with the social skills they need to succeed in the real world.
Students at co-educational schools not only learn beside each
other, they learn from each other. Co-ed schooling teaches
collaboration, fosters a positive self-image, and helps to develop
the confidence our future leaders need.
A co-educational learning environment helps break down
misconceptions between boys and girls. It introduces students
to both male and female role models, and leaves children with a
wider, more diverse network of friends.
Co-educational schooling gives children the confidence they need
to tackle challenges and embrace new opportunities. It results in
young adults who are open-minded, well-rounded, and willing to
step outside their comfort zone.
Co-educational schools teach children the social skills needed
to interact with a diverse range of people, helping them to form
meaningful relationships that they’ll carry with them for the rest
of their lives.
