A naive analysis of the science performance of pupils attending single-sex and mixed schools shows that, on average, pupils attending the former achieved higher scores. However, since many of the pupils in single-sex schools attend either independent or grammar schools, the performance difference may have little to do with the attendance at single-sex schools but more to do with the preselection by ability of pupils in these schools. When comprehensives only are considered, there are no statistically significant differences in the mean performance on the APU tests between single-sex and mixed schools for either boys or girls. Also there is no evidence that there was a large increase in the take-up of science subjects for girls attending single-sex schools. The paper describes why it is not sensible to attribute differences directly to the separation of pupils in schools by sex. |
