write a speech on ' pros and cons of co-education schools ' 

Dear Student,
 
You can develop your speech based on the following points:

Every system has its pros and cons and coeducation is no different.

Pros:

• It mimics the real world, where everybody has to interact with each other, regardless of gender.
• It develops respect for members of the opposite gender, and helps students overcome their fear of the ‘unknown’.
• Character enhancement is also possible because children tend to behave better when there are members of the opposite gender around.
• It gives exposure to the thought processes, learning styles and approach to life by members of the opposite gender.

Cons:

• There is a high possibility of distraction, especially among students in their teenage.
• Unwanted arguments and contradiction of ideas and thought process may lead to conflict and an unhealthy learning atmosphere.
• There may be more insecurity because of the pressure to impress members of the opposite gender.
• There may also be inequality among students because of stereotypes – for example, boys are considered tough and girls fragile. This may lead to a difference in treatment in classrooms.
