Girls thrive in single-sex schools, but boys do not. It is a common assumption and new research from London's Institute of Education (IoE) suggests, to a certain extent, that it is true. Assessing the biggest ever swath of historical data on the issue, researchers found that girls who go to girls' schools will later earn more than those from mixed schools - partly because they are less likely to make gendered decisions about their studies and are therefore more likely to take maths and science subjects.
If Britons generally believe that girls do better in all-girl schools, British parents who value education will be more likely send their daughters to all-girl schools. One would expect the children of attentive parents to achieve greater academic success, regardless of their school environment.
Why? Because the home environment is more important than the school environment? Or because attentive parents give birth to attentive children? I confess that I also don't see the connection between your first and second sentence. Elaborate please. |
