    (Addis Ababa University, 2004-06) Bulti, Amare; Orner, Yusuf (PhD)
    The purpose of this study is to assess practices, problems and prospects of counselling services in some selected secondary schools of Addis Ababa. The data were collected through questionnaires, interviews and focus group discussion. 553 students, 154 teachers, 13 directors, 21 counsellors and 78 focus group discussion members were involved in the study. Various statistical techniques both qualitative and quantitative such as Cronbach Alpha Reliability Coefficient, Percentage, Standard deviation, Mean, Coefficient of variation and Chi square test were used to analyse the data. The outcome of the data analysis revealed that there are problems in counselling activities (practices) and in the actual counselling facilities. For instance, there are no professional counselling centres to refer students who have difficult problems for better treatment. The counsellors lacked reference materials on counselling in their school libraries. Moreover, the findings show that there are a lot of practical activities carried out by the school counsellors in the secondary schools. Detailed problems and prospects related to counselling services were also identified. Finally, both short term and long term major recommendations are presented in order to improve the counselling services in the secondary schools of Addis Ababa
