| dc.description.abstract | School counselling is an important aspect in education. This paper evaluates students’ perception of school counselling in Cameroon using a quantitative research design (Z test) with a purposive probability sample of 150 high school students from Bamenda Sub-division. Results reveal that school counselling is an integral part of the school program me, remains vital in the education of students, and students have an opinion of what the role of counselling should be. However, the analyses also reveal that school counselling does not influence students’ educational and career choices; and that it offers little help in solving students’ psychological problems. The findings of this study reveal fundamental structural and functional limitations of school counselling in Cameroon, and highlight the necessity of re-evaluating its methods, objectives, and quality of interaction with students. | en_US |
