We should be focusing on the education of the future and be striving to give them all opportunities possible

Please change the rule. Allow the children to do the GCSES they want to do. Do not penalise them for the sex they were born.

I strongly believe in co education but if we cannot then both comprehensive schools should offer the same subjects!

This is sexual discrimination, pure and simple.
Additionally, by placing all students of a single gender in one school, then this limits the ability of the school to have a strong identity - as it encompasses the entire community in that age bracket. Switching to two modern mixed/co-educational school would not only solve this problem, it would also give the schools much more healthy identities. Lets see if the politicians have the guts to deliver the modern non-sexist educational environment that Gibraltar needs.

I think that boys and girls should have the same GCSE options, some girls passions are photography along with boys with dance. It's quite unfair that we'd have to choose art (Westside) to do photography if we don't really like art.

There were a couple of subjects I wanted to do that I wasn't allowed to do just because they only taught them at Bayside and I thought it was really unfair. I want both the pupils at Westside and Bayside to be able to choose what ever subject they want to do, even if I already did my GCSE's

Can't believe this is a still a thing, it is so ridiculous. When I first moved to Gib I was honestly shocked by this and thought it was extremely unfair and still do. Let's hope something is done :)

A lot of the choices are sexist as well! For example boys not able to pick Textiles or Child Development, but girls can. Furthermore, girls cannot do resistant Materical design Technology (woodwork and metalwork) but boys are allowed to.
