Judge Rules Scottish Schools Must Provide Single-Sex Lavatories

The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on The Times.

This is the sub-heading.

Parents win legal fight after head teacher dismissed concerns over only gender-neutral facilities

This reminds me of a lecture I went to at Emmanuel College in Cambridge given by the retiring Head of Projects at Unicef. The lecture told what Unicef had done during International Women’s Year.

One story was about why girls tended to leave school at an early age in India.

Unicef didn’t know why, although they thought it could be arranged marriages. Then someone produced a peer-reviewed paper from the University of Delhi, which blamed the fact that boys and girls shared the same toilets.

Unicef set up a program with Hari Krishna to segregate the toilets and it worked.
