===== Definition ===== Curricular sex segregation refers to the practice of segregating students based on their sex or gender identity for educational purposes. This can involve separating boys and girls into different classrooms or assigning them to different courses or subjects based on traditional gender roles and expectations. Proponents of curricular sex segregation argue that it allows for more tailored instruction and a focus on the specific needs and learning styles of each gender group. They believe that separating boys and girls in certain subjects can result in more effective teaching methods and improved educational outcomes. Opponents of curricular sex segregation argue that it reinforces harmful gender stereotypes and restricts opportunities for students to interact and learn from each other. They believe that separating students based on sex perpetuates gender inequality and limits their ability to develop essential skills such as teamwork, communication, and empathy. It is important to note that curricular sex segregation is a controversial topic, and its implementation varies across different educational systems and countries. Some jurisdictions have actively promoted mixed-gender education as a means to promote gender equality and provide equal opportunities for all students.
