The counsellor occupies a very strategic position in any educational system. The Federal Government is aware of this fact, this is why the reemphasis is on the need for guidance and counselling services in the new national policy on education (6-3-3-4) system. It is also clear from the Federal Ministry of Education that counsellors should operate on full-time basis. Also most principals and teachers are aware of the counsellor‟s functions/services. Despite this fact, it has been observed that the programme/services are not encouraged at the secondary school level.
