Guidance

We offer a full range of interventions and activities, which assist pupils to make choices about their lives. For second level pupils these choices are focused in a developmental way on three key areas:

  • Personal
  • Educational
  • Career

Objectives

At the end of the school year students will have experienced:

  • Guidance in educational and personal learning management.
  • Vocational exploration and information.
  • Individual and/or Group Counselling will have been available for all students on request and/or on referral.
  • Students will have access to information which is appropriate for their personal, educational and vocational development.
  • Parents will have met with the School Guidance Counsellors at information evenings, at organised Guidance meetings and on request.
  • Students’ needs – with regard to the Guidance Counselling Service – will be evaluated, and in partnership with staff and the Principal / School Management, planning for the future will be on going.

Role of the Guidance Counsellor

As a student you will make significant decisions while still at school. These choices are related to personal and social issues, educational issues and career issues. Guidance counsellors are trained professionals with the expertise and knowledge to help you make choices in the three important areas outlined above. We do this through individual consultation, guidance classes and other activities.
