Organization and administration in guidance and counseling2
1. ORGANIZATION AND ADMINISTRATION IN GUIDANCE
1. Guidance History
A. Guidance in the United States
Frank Parsons
The first organized guidance movement – the move to assist young people – was started by a
civic-minded leader in the early part of the 20th century.
He is rightfully called the “father” of vocational guidance movement and of the guidance
movement in general.
He started as a volunteer worker in the Civic Service House in Boston to observe maladjusted
young men and women.
organized the Breadwinners’ Institute in 1905 with a planned program for vocational
guidance.
Meyer Bloomfield
he next organized the Vocational Bureau of Boston.
For the first time, “vocational counselor” and “vocational guidance’ were used with the
present connotation.
1934 – there were 35 branches of the National Vocational Guidance Association. Guidance
became national in scope when the United States Office of Education established the
Occupational Information and Guidance Service with Harry A. Jaeger as director.
During World War II, guidance suffered setback when young men were drafted into the
military service and to job opportunities in war industries, thus causing a considerable decrease
in high school enrolment. There was also a shortage of guidance workers.
After the war, the Vocational Rehabilitation Act provided for the training and employment of
disabled veterans and the Servicemen’s Readjustment Act for the education and training of
veterans.
B. Guidance Movements in Europe
European countries and Great Britain developed guidance movement similar to those in the
United States at about the same time.
In Great Britain, as in United States, guidance suffered a setback during World War II
because young workers could readily obtain employment without vocational guidance.
In France, there is no provision for guidance in the secondary schools. Vocational Guidance
was given national recognition in 1922, when guidance services became established offices.
In Germany, under the First Reich, although service to the Emperor was part of tradition,
vocational guidance enabled boys to find jobs and aided the government to relocate workers
where they were needed.
In Russia, the vocational guidance bureau handles counseling programs.
C. Guidance Movement in the Philippines
2. In the Philippines, guidance is said to have both accidental and incidental origin.
Before 1925, guidance as movement, as it is now practiced and accepted, was unknown in the
Philippines. It was only in 1932 when a Psychological Clinic was started by Dr. Sinforoso
Padilla and which concerned itself with cases of student discipline, as well as emotional,
academic and vocational problems.
In November 1945, the first Guidance Institute was opened. The Bureau of Public Schools
started to send teachers as pensionados for observation and study of guidance services abroad.
In its report of 1951, Congress proposed the establishment of a functional guidance and
counseling program to help students select their course, activities, occupations, friends, future
mates.
In 1953, the Philippine Association of Guidance Counselors was organized in order to study the
needs, interests and potentialities of our young people and to establish a Testing Bureau.
The most systematic guidance program in the Philippines was launced by the Guidance Section
of the United States Veterans Administration composed of both American and Filipino
psychologists like Dr. Sinforoso Padilla, Dr. Jesus Perpinan and Mr. Roman Tuason.
2. Organizational Chart
3. Model 1: Organizational Structure for a Small School.
This shows that instruction,discipline and guidance are in one line.
Model 2: Organizational Structure for a Big School.
6. This is a simple structure of the
program with the objectives directed to
the benefits of the clients.
COMMUNICATION/COORDINATION
Communication/Coordination is a
major aspects of an organization. The
guidance counselor reports to the proper
authority on relevant issues regarding
the guidance program. He also coor-
dinates with the proper persons/agencies
for the best deliverance of its services;he
supervises how they are delivered and
carries to right channel. A two- way
communication/coordination should be
established.
Model 4: Line of Communication/Coordination
4. Guidance Personnel
1. Chairman
7. is better known as the educational administrator or dean who, according to Good, is any
educational officer responsible for the management or direction of some parts of an
educational establishment or system.
Typically, it includes such officers as college presidents, school superintendents and
principals
In any case, the fundamental responsibilities of the administrator include leadership in the
organization and reorganization of guidance services, stimulation of a guidance-minded
attitude among the members of the guidance staff by means of some form of orientation and
in-service education.
2. Homeroom and classroom teachers
one unit of school administration which is under the direct supervision of a teacher known
as the homeroom sponsor and which serves as a second home to the pupils assigned to it for
purposes of guidance and for the administration of certain school activities.
His aims are to develop desirable pupil-teacher relationships, to assist in the guidance of
pupils, to develop desirable ideals and habits – personal and civic, and to expedite the
handling of administrative routine.
3. Teacher-counselor
the pivotal point around which all guidance services must revolve if desired outcomes are to
be achieved.
serves as a guidance of the pupils’ behavior and attitudes. He enjoys many guidance and
counseling opportunities as the only teacher in the grade school, as adviser ao student
activities at the high school level or class instructor and activity sponsor in college.
4. Coordinators and Counselors

members. He helps coordinate the guidance services between the administrator and staff
members. He counsels students.
He makes and follows up case studies, assists teachers together with counselors. Prepares
materials for occupational information, assists the librarian in securing guidance materials
and secures the help of the dean, psychiatrists, psychologists, parents, civic organizations,
etc.
5. Specialists
First in the list are the health personnel – doctors, nurses and dentists. And other specialists
are psychologist(administers, corrects and interprets the results of standardized tests, usually
group test), psychiatrist(deals with mental and emotional problems) and social
workers(study the pupil’s homelife and out-of-school conditions and cooperate with the
counselors and teachers in understanding the underlying causes of undesirable behavior.
8. 6. The Librarian
help young people find reference materials,thus coming to know them intimately.
Can give great assistance to the pupils in meeting problems of pupil-adjustment, in the
absence of someone in whom they can confide their problems, difficulties and frustrations.
7. Parents
first factor of influence in a child’s life is the home. Thus, close cooperation between
principal or dean and teachers on one hand and the parents on the other should be achieved.
A greatly vitalized phase of the guidance program is the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA),
inasmuch as the responsibility for guidance in the home lies with the parents and that in the
school with the teacher.
8. The Community

like the Rotary Club have rendered valuable cooperation with the school in carrying out the
guidance program.
