Default High School Question about Streaming

So as I've mentioned before, I'm an Education student at the UofA. Me and a buddy in the same program were having a debate today about streaming in high schools(streaming is having pure and applied versions of subjects, ie taking Social Studies 10 or 13 in grade 10).

Alot of people feel they should just stick everyone in one class(ie just have a Social Studies grade 10), as they feel streaming closes doors in the future for students taking the lower level class. Others however feel its not fair to place them all in the same class when some just may not be suited for say Math 10 Pure, and should have the option of taking it at a more well-suited level for them. It was a pretty good debate actually, I'm interested to hear your guys' thoughts on it.
