How old are you? Do you walk around with blinkers on your eyes ?

In my neighbourhood there are still old school buildings with clearly defined separate entrances for girls & for boys.

Read up on your recent history chap & maybe you can answer the question "When did our UK edyukashion system begin to integrate the sexes then?"
 
Raised in a news article about this case



is an example of a boys' school and adjacent girls' school which may be separated by a fence yet this is deemed NOT discriminatory nor illegal.
No different to the old Grammar school system back in the 60's ( Lewes, East Sussex )

Not in favour of this totalitarian approach and don't really respect or value the sentiments of offstead who are pushing for this either.

With views like this from Amanda Spielman who is heading Ofstead: ''Speaking after the Court of Appeal ruling Amanda Spielman, Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Schools, said educational institutions should never treat pupils less favourably because of their sex.''

All it's going to do is enrage fundamentalists, do we really want more of that????

Likewise those who believe in the freedom to choose, and don't wish to have that decided by a overly controlling government/nanny state.

Interesting point - also from the news article -
"However, the court did not accept the argument the school's policy had disadvantaged girls more than boys."

Might she be replaced soon?

what has that got to do with the high court ruling ?
 
You are part of an unpopular culture in this country.

Eh?......thats a meaningless statement, have you been on the prosecco again?

I didnt realise blaming Ofsted for something is associated with 'part of an unpopular culture' :):mrgreen::)
 
It's interesting how the local council tried to defend the system, yet if these had been single sex schools, there would have been no issue. You can send your child to a single sex school, and expect there to be no children of the opposite sex there, but I wonder how many of the parents sending their children to these "supposed" mixed sex schools, knew about the segregation, and were happy to go along with it.

I can see the reason that the Islamic schools do it, but I'm suprised on the Jewish and Christan schools - unless the Jewish school was Hassidic (ultra orthodox) of course.

Interestingly it is that threat which has riled hard right orthodox jews like Ben Shapiro into action because they also think the state is so alarmingly into peoples business it's gone past a joke. He argues that the government has no business legislating over things like this, he's also hot on the recent gender identity argument, the recent bizzare notion that you can claim to be any sexual identity you like despite it not having any biological basis. He's very common sensical, and he gets a lot of press coverage in the mainstream as well as the alernative media. I agree with him politically on a lot of things, this topic especially.
 
Let's be specific Hawkeye if that's okay. Do you feel it's okay to segregate the kids in a mixed sex school.

My uneducated opinion would be yes. But that's on the basis that I believe it's the schools decision how they want to run it. I read somewhere once that boys generally do better academically without having girls in their classes, which makes sense to me as they are goddamm distracting haha.
