Age grade segregation refers to the practice of separating individuals into different groups or categories based on their age. This segregation can occur in various aspects of society, such as schools, workplaces, social organizations, and communities. This segregation can be seen as a form of discrimination, as it can limit opportunities for individuals based on their age and can contribute to ageism. However, age grade segregation can also have positive aspects, such as providing age-appropriate environments for individuals to socialize and interact with others who are in a similar stage of life.
