Imagine being asked to spend twelve years in a school which consists only of members of your own sex. How would you (36) react? Unless there was something (37) definitely wrong with you, you wouldn’t be too happy about it.
    Any discussion of this topic is (38) bound to question the aims of education. (39) Stuffing children’s heads full of knowledge is far from being (40) foremost. One of the chief aims of education society is made up of men and women, so how can a segregated school possibly offer the right sort of (42) preparation for it ?
    A co-educational school offers children nothing less than a true (43) version of society in miniature. Boys and girls are given the opportunity to get to know each other, to learn to live together from their earliest years. (44) They are put in a position where they can compare themselves with each other in terms of academic ability, athletic achievement and many of the extra-curricular activities which are part of school life.
    (45) But perhaps the greatest contribution of co-education is the healthy attitude to life it encourages.  Boys don’t grow up believing that women are mysterious creatures.  Girls don’t grow up imagining that men are romantic heroes. (46) When the time comes for the pupils to leave school, they are fully prepared to enter society as well-adjusted adults. They have already had years of experience in coping with many of the problems that face men and women.
