Just want to ask for opinions on this as I do have a thread in secondary education about this
My son is in year 10 and is taking double science. They have split the classes into boys classes and girls classes.
I understand some of the arguments about girls doing much better in single sex classes but I'm still not comfortable about this
My son would be much better off temperament wise in a mixed or girls class and I have no doubts that my daughter would be able to hold her own (or take over) in a boys class
So can I ask, do you think it should be set on ability regardless, by sex or a mix of both
Thanks
