The Guidance & Counselling Service at St Joseph's College

Guidance is, by definition, person-centred and holistic. Guidance supports students’
personal, emotional, social, educational and career development.

Guidance facilitates and empowers students to make informed decisions and life choices. Guidance plays a
significant role in supporting students’ wellbeing and contributes to building internal and
external resilience.

The aim of St Joseph’s College Guidance and Counselling
service is to ensure that our students have access to appropriate guidance and support to assist
them in their personal and social development, and in making educational and career
choices in accordance with section 9C of the Education Act (1998).
