I went to co ed private till year 4, then co ed public till year 6, private all girls school till year 10.(with a year of co ed private school chucked in there when we moved to Darwin!) For me personally I loved the all girls school, I have 3 younger brothers who all remained at the co ed public school, then continued on to co ed public highschool, my mother is of the belief that boys do better with co ed education, whereas girls tend to excell in a single sex environment.
I think, high school is highschool, kwim? there are always gonna be *****es, I dont think it was any more than there was at the co ed one, the level of respect for teachers was very high at the all girls school, was a total eye opener for me going to the co ed one in Darwin, the teachers never had any time for the students as they were constantly trying to stop the troublemakers from shenanigans. (99% of them the boys)
I do feel though that at the all girls school there was a higher element of "boy craziness" due to them not being so accessible itms?
