Severe Shortage Of Counsellors In Schools

‘People For Education’ is out with a report on the need for more counsellors in area schools.

The report shows the important role counsellors play, but identifies a severe shortage in northwestern Ontario.

Spokesperson David Cameron says one of the problems is the funding formula for counsellors is ruled by school boards.

Cameron recommends a number of changes including improving elementary school funding for guidance counsellors.
