Major Problems of Counselling in Ethiopian High Schools

Abstract

This paper attempts to examine the major problems of
counselling in Ethiopian high schools. It examines the training
of high school counsellors and the awareness of the school
community. The paper is based on some surveys conducted in
Addis Ababa. In fact, the ,writers experience and personal
communications with high school counsellors in the regions
suggest that the status of counselling is no better, if not worse,
in the regions. Particularly in remote areas, the importance of
! counselling is not recognized at all.
