I think on average single sex girls schools do outperform single sex boys schools but there seems to be a weird pattern where the boys schools are more polarised in the results (higher concentrations of both the best and the worst results). not sure why this is

I just realised these schools probably chose (not forced) to go coed 💀 waste of a thread mb guys!
lol nah the points brought up still make sense
but yeah a lot of the changes are cos of pressure from parents and families, i think randwick is merging the single sex schools cos they surveyed parents in the area of kids who are going into high school in the following years and most of them said they would prefer a coed school

IMO school is just a place for learning content/daycare. Nothing more. Single-sex or Coed doesn't change anything. I have no opinion on this matter.
If you went to an all boys school I def think you would be a very different person socially and academically

Unlikely. I never socialized with my classmates even in primary school. My parents put lots of effort to get me to socialize with other people my age.

I also wasn't the brightest in my primary school. Although my primary school classmates were crazy smart. So many state ranks from my primary school, it's actually astounding. Dux and the runner up were both from my primary school.

Any issues I have are external to the school I attend or my classmates

what source did u pull this out of? Whilst there are many schools single sex for women that are achieving rlly well (like I cant deny that), the vast majority in the top 20 list for single sex schools are boys only schools... Including the one that recently beat the 27years undefeated JRAHS. Surely they can't just claim that boys don't work well in single sex environments if they have proved to have brought out pretty decent results?
I’ll find it tomorrow but I heard it on the news a few months ago. Something about girls getting distracted less in the classroom, less disruptions, being less intimidated to participate in discussions (ie STEM subjects and subjects not typically female orientated) etc. Personally tho, I’m not a fan of single sex education. But it comes down to the individual and their (parent’s) preferences.

My school (all boys) did something interesting where they started a program between us and an all girls school, like activities, a few classes, and stem related stuff for both schools to collaborate. like every week or so, some students from one school would go to the other to do some activity.

Its still in its very early stages (idek if it will continue), but perhaps it is a nice hybrid of getting the benefits of a single-sex school, whilst also giving the opportunity for both sexes to interact more regularly
