Question

I need an essay of co education about 200 words

Answer 1

There was a time when it was believed that boys and girls should be taught in separate institutions. In ancient gurukuls, there were only boys who were given education then. In spite of this, women generally had good education in ancient India.

After Independence, several education commissions and committees were set up. They generally advocated co-education in schools up to 10+2 level and separate education for boys and girls at the university level till graduation. This policy is now by and large being followed in our country. There is, however, co-education again at post-graduation level.

Some people believe that co-education should not be there. In their opinion this can lead to attraction between boys and girls which are neither good for their health, nor character, nor studies. Some other people are of the view that co-education can bring about a healthy competition between boys and girls and thus it can be of mutual benefit to both sexes. It can mean better discipline since in the presence of girls the boys will not talk irrelevantly or obscenely in the class.

The most potent argument advanced by co-education lovers is that it can help both boys and girls in the development of their personality. They can come out of their enclosed shell-like personality and get rid of their unwarranted hesitation and shyness.

This can make boys and girls more expressive, progressive and forward in outlook and attitude to life which can be of great advantage to both sexes. It must, however, be noted that some reservations are also there and even in a country like England, exclusive schools for girls are now being set up.

Thankyou...

Hope it helps...☺

Answer 2

Co-education is not a new thing for us Indians. Firstly, the system leads to economy. Secondly, it gives place to exchange of free ideas between boys and girls and removes inhibitions from which Indian boys and girls suffer. Thirdly, it enlarges the scope of and enthusiasm for competition and gives better results. Besides, the presence of girls among boys in the same schools, colleges, and libraries will result in healthy thinking and any unwanted emphasis by boys or girls on the sexual side of their relationship would give place to a sense of comradeship.

Co-education is a useful system. But the Co­education is not without its serious drawbacks. Those who oppose co-education, according to them, though the system leads to ‘economy yet the benefits as such are ultimately false. Moreover, giving the same type of education to both boys and girls is equal to going against Nature. Thus, the very idea of co-education is wrong.

The most potent argument advanced by co-education lovers is that it can help both boys and girls in the development of their personality. They can come out of their enclosed shell-like personality and get rid of their unwarranted hesitation and shyness.

This can make boys and girls more expressive, progressive and forward in outlook and attitude to life which can be of great advantage to both sexes. It must, however, be noted that some reservations are also there and even in a country like England, exclusive schools for girls are now being set up.
