The Power of School Counsellor Training: Essential Learning for Modern Education

In the tapestry of educational history, the role of the school counsellor has often been painted with quiet strokes, subtly blending into the vibrant background. Yet, as any artist knows, it's these seemingly modest details that hold the artwork together. School counsellors, like these gentle brush strokes, are the unsung heroes of the educational world, providing support, guidance, and care to students as they navigate the complexities of school life.

Why School Counsellor Training is Essential in Today's World

In an era defined by technological advances, rapid globalization, and increasing social pressures, the role of school counsellors is more vital than ever. Look at the data:

  • 1 in 5 children in the US experience a mental health condition, and most don't get the help they need.
  • School counsellors help reduce school dropout rates, which, according to a study, can save the US as much as $200,000 per youth in social costs.
  • Research indicates that school counsellors significantly improve students' academic performance and overall well-being.
  • School counsellors are critical in crisis intervention, especially as schools face challenges like cyberbullying, substance abuse, and other pressing concerns.

The need for well-trained school counsellors is evident, and this training program will lay the foundation for aspiring professionals to make a real difference.

FAQs

At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
