This request concerns school counsellors
For each question I am seeking information for each of the following time periods:
i) 2014/15
ii) 2015/16
iii) 2016/17
iv) 2017/18 to date (most recent data available)
1. How many secondary school counsellors does your authority employ?
Devon County Council do not employ any school counsellors. Schools may well employ their own school counsellors but Devon County Council would not hold this information. Schools would have to be approached directly for this information. Contact details for schools within Devon can be found on our website at:
