Therefore, related literature which dealt with the teachers’ and students’ perception of counselling needs of secondary school students, was also reviewed as part of this study.

The findings of the study revealed that there is a significant difference between the perception of teachers’ and students’ of counseling needs in secondary schools in Ijebu North Local Government, there is no significant difference between male and female students’ perception of counselling needs in secondary schools in Ijebu North Local Government and there is no significant difference between male and female teachers’ perception of counselling needs in secondary schools in Ijebu North Local Government. It was concluded that curriculum developers should endeavour to take a critical look into the curriculum so as to improve the level of interest by students and teachers towards counselling needs so as to curb mass the negative effect of counselling as always recorded across the world every year.
