coeducational
Gender-integrated schooling system
Coeducational describes schools or programs that teach males and females together.
The term emerged when educating the sexes jointly was novel enough to need a name: a coeducational college, coeducational dormitories.
Often shortened to coed.
The noun coed once meant a female student at such an institution but now sounds dated.
