During the study's research four main themes emerged: Collaboration with other actors, Access to the school counselor, The school counselors 'workload and reasons for increase, school students' Mental health. The Reports were analyzed according to two theoretical perspectives in M. Lipsky's theories of room for maneuver and Street-level bureaucrats and Max Weber's organizational theory of the bureaucratic school and previous research. The results showed the importance of school counselors and how essential it is to actually have one physically present in school. The results also showed us that school counselor is overloaded with work, even though the laws are too vaguely described, which in turn leads to students' access to school counselors being negatively affected. Furthermore, the opportunity for collaboration with other actors, preventive work and the opportunity to work with students' mental health are negatively affected. (Less)
