Imagining being aked to pend twelve or o year of your life in a ociety which conited only of member of own ex. How would you react? Unle there wa omething definitely wrong with you, you wouldn’t be too happy about it, to ay the leat. It i all the more urpriing therefore that o many parent in the world chooe to impoe uch abnormal condition on their children – condition which they themelve wouldn’t put up with for one minute!

There are no romantic heroe with knobbly knee, dirty fingernail and unkempt hair. The awkward tage of adolecence bring into harp focu ome of the phyical and emotional problem involved in growing up. Thee can better be overcome in a co-educational environment. Segregated chool ometime provide the right condition for exual deviation. Thi i hardly poible under a co-educational ytem. When the time come for the pupil to leave chool, they are fully prepared to enter ociety a well-adjuted adult.
