===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 1997<br> Australia ===== Definition ===== Educational sex segregation refers to the separation of students based on their biological sex for educational purposes. This practice can be seen in various forms, such as single-sex schools, classrooms, or courses. Proponents argue that sex segregation can provide a more tailored education experience, address gender-specific learning styles and needs, and reduce distraction or competition among students. However, opponents argue that sex segregation can perpetuate gender stereotypes, limit opportunities for social interaction and collaboration, and reinforce inequality between genders. The approach to sex segregation in education varies across different countries and educational institutions, with some supporting it and others discouraging or banning it. ==See also== ==Related segregation forms== Educational sex segregation is frequently discussed in the literature with the following segregation forms: [[sex segregation]] [[File:educational_sex_segregation.png|780x780px]] This visualization is based on the study [[Segregation_Wiki:About| The Multidisciplinary Landscape of Segregation Research]].
