Administrators can play an essential role in supporting school counselors' wellness and ability to support students effectively.…”

In this cross-sectional quantitative study, we employed survey research to examine the differences in school counselors’ ( N = 327) burnout, job stress, and job satisfaction based on their student caseload size. The results indicated that higher caseloads were associated with higher degrees of burnout and job stress, along with lower job satisfaction. The results produced small to medium effect sizes. We discussed how such factors relate to the effectiveness of providing student services and school leaders’ support for school counselors.

“…The behavior of the principal who supports the guidance and counseling activities and wants to work with the counselor and hear input from the counselor will improve the performance of the counselor.

“…A substantial body of research, mostly conducted in the U.S., has found that principals’ perceptions of school counselling are not consistent with the role descriptions found in counselling models such as the ASCA National Model (Kirchner & Setchfield, 2005; Lawrence & Stone, 2019; Perusse et al, 2004). In the Philippines, David (2017) identified a lack of principals’ understanding of counsellors’ work, principals assigning inappropriate tasks to counsellors, and principals having unrealistic expectations of counsellors, as impediments to effective counselling.…”

School counselling has the potential to deliver significant support for the wellbeing of children. However, much of the research on school counsellors has been conducted in developed Western countries, with very limited research into factors influencing the effectiveness of counsellors in lower middle-income countries or in Asia. The aim of this qualitative study was to investigate the perceptions of Filipino counsellors about their roles, and factors that supported or impeded their effectiveness. Seventeen school counsellors in the Philippines were interviewed, and the data were analysed thematically. Our findings suggest that Filipino school counsellors often carry out dual roles, experience a lack of role clarity, and are systemically disempowered in their schools. Relationships with school principals have a significant influence on counsellors’ roles and positioning in schools, and therefore on their effectiveness. The ability of principals to foster a school ethos supportive of counselling is essential in enabling counsellors to leverage the multifunctional nature of their work, become embedded and centrally positioned in the school community, and enhance their effectiveness. Doing so can enable counselling to be more culturally accessible to young people.
