*Ø* Blogmanac | Boys do better at boys' schools: research
July 6: "One of the great educational theories of the past 30 years is being turned on its head. It seems boys perform better academically, and become more sensitive men, if they attend all-male schools.
"Findings to be presented at a major conference on boys' education, beginning in Sydney today, show that boys educated without the company of girls have greater self-esteem.
"They are also more likely to pursue subjects such as art, drama and music, to get involved in debating and school leadership and enjoy reading."
