1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nation.

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 2: Down to the Jonesy no matter of arms for the

3
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 2: pub test. Today single sex schools do they pass the

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,799
Speaker 2: pub test. Sydney's Newington College, one of Sydney's oldest schools,

5
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 2: is going to become co ed from twenty twenty six.

6
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: Many single schools are doing this. Cranbrook, famous old schools,

7
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 2: Barker Four, Sydney Catholic Schools in the Inner West, Maruba

8
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 2: North Shore, the Aumbadar School in New South Wales, at

9
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 2: Canberra Grammar in the Act. A variety of schools and

10
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 2: there's just a few of them have decided that single

11
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 2: sex is no longer the way to go. There has

12
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 2: been some pushback on this. Graham Richardson has said his

13
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 2: son goes to Cranbrook and he said he'd get lawyers

14
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 2: involved if this happened before his son finished the HFC.

15
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: He said, my son, I've signed on for my son

16
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 2: to have a single sex education. Girls are a distraction.

17
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 2: Rich Oh knows well they've shown that academically that may

18
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 2: be true that boys and girls do better in single

19
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 2: sex schools, but we all know educations more than just

20
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 2: how academically well you do. It's about life. Experience about

21
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 2: learning about life. I would think that would be better

22
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 2: in a co ed school. But how do you feel

23
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 2: single sex schools do they pass the pub test totally?

24
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 3: So we've got choice. I've got my kids at Newington

25
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 3: just been slammed with no options other than a little

26
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 3: bit of consultation, and all fathers in my ear absolutely

27
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 3: kissed off.

28
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 2: Yes they do.

29
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you've got to keep them separate, boys being much

30
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: better in a single sex school. They do pass a

31
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: pub tess. My son of a good single sex school

32
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: up until you hear ten, I was and his grades

33
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 1: were great, terrific. He went to a boys and girls

34
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: and his grades went down toilet. He was more interested

35
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: in the girls as he was in his studies.

36
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 2: It is interesting, isn't it.

37
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 3: Thank you by your course.
