Most of the education system follows that system, where both genders study to-gather with dignity and respect. But still some people or some system have conflict, they did not respect that system. Hundreds of doubts are there regarding such system. Let see it thoroughly;

 

WHAT IS CO-EDUCATION?

A system where both genders (male and female) study to-gather in the same educational institute or center to get themselves educated is called co-education system.

Many institutions take this as a healthy system and would implement it. This is the duty of system to develop a climate of respect between the students.  Both are given equal status and rights. On the other side, the same amount would oppose that co-education system.

Let see some of the advantages of that system:

They take part in different activities like academics, sports or cultural etc with one another and help each other in performing different activities.

Being with opposite gender for a long time allows you to know the strength and flaws of one another, that will help them accept people with different personalities.
