So I have an 8 year old daughter. It’s recently come to my attention that her year and upwards in her school, have boys and girls use the same toilets. My first reaction was shock because i am pretty sure I never had to when I was a kid. As well as that, there’s the fact that you just don’t know what goes on in the toilets. Boys/girls could be peeking under cubicles, or leaving doors open and god forbid showing there “bits”. So am I crazy in thinking that this isn’t right? I’ve spoken to a few other mums and, like myself they had no idea that this was a thing? I don’t know whether I’m being an overprotective parent or whether I should speak to the head teacher about it. Any advice is welcome. I am new to this also, so be nice :)

In my knowledge each and every schools in our country has separate toilets for boys and girls. How it comes unisex toilets in this particular school. Have an urgent meeting with the Principal and request them to take necessary action immediately.

@MALUSE That’s exactly what I mean. If you, a teacher of 40 years have never seen unisex toilets in schools, then why is it suddenly an ok thing in my daughters school? So yes, I think I will have to set up a meeting with a teacher. Thank you

I have always had separeted bathrooms and it is still that way in my children's school and I think it is the correct way.
