I don't know the answer to this but I can give my experience. I think no matter where you go there will be distractions, like bullys or people who get you into 'the wrong crowd' etc I've always been in mixed sex schools and to be honest it was only when I reached 14-15 that I became distracted by boys in class. Normally, around the age of 10 I would go to school and play 'kiss chase' in the playground, it would normally be me gathering all the cute boys to play. But that was during break. When I was 16 I did get distracted by boys in class, but who doesn't get distracted by something that looks better than your lesson!? I ...  Read the complete review

I’m 26. I have spent the last 10 years on meds and in therapy. There were many factors contributing to that…but guess what I’m about to tell you? That’s right. Going to a single-sex school damaged me, badly. Four words: SEXUAL AND EMOTIONAL IMMATURITY. Between the ages of 5-11 I was in a mixed environment: so infant and primary school. During this time, it is fair to say that I liked girls, and they seemed to like me. To date, the years between age 7 and 11 are still the best ones of my life. Neither was I an academic failure during this period. I was ‘among’ the best 2-3 students in our year. I actually enjoyed learning stuff. At age 11 we moved to ...  Read the complete review

I recently read a review on this, by a member SILVIETTA 2005 and I rather liked it however, I too attended both variations of mixed and single sexed schools here's what I think. Mixed schools from the onset for a young impressionable 6/7 year old is kind of daunting! I remember way back as a young little missy coming home and asking my mom why did God make boys? she answered "to keep you on your toes" - well after despising the little creatures that kicked me, pulled my pig-tails and tripped me as I walked, I did manage to get my own back, I did better in school them and I ignored them which is the best medicine. Then along came the beginnings ...  Read the complete review
