co-ed schools

Boys and girls

Co-ed schools are educational institutions where male and female students learn together, as opposed to single-sex schools.

The term comes from coeducational, meaning joint education of both sexes.

Most public schools in the United States and many other countries are co-ed by default: She transferred from an all-girls academy to a co-ed school.
