This is the most common form of education in secular countries and has proven to be beneficial in cultivating moral and ethical codes of conduct when mingling with people of different sexes and genders.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A school that provides co education is called a coed school. The world&#8217;s oldest co ed school is considered to be Archbishop Tenison&#8217;s Church of England High School established in 1714 in Croydon, United Kingdom. It admitted both boys and girls from its inception itself.
