===== Definition ===== 

Educational gender segregation is the practice of separating students based on their gender in educational settings. This can be done in various ways, such as segregating students into all-boys or all-girls schools, classrooms, or activities.

Advocates of educational gender segregation argue that it can create a more focused and tailored learning environment for students, as well as reducing distractions and promoting better academic performance. They also believe that it can help address specific educational needs of each gender and promote a sense of equality.

However, critics of educational gender segregation argue that it reinforces gender stereotypes and limits opportunities for social interaction and learning from diverse perspectives. They also argue that it can perpetuate inequality and discrimination based on gender.

Overall, the debate around educational gender segregation continues to be a topic of discussion in the education system, with different perspectives on its benefits and drawbacks.
