Abstract

This folio, which places educational reform within the social, economic, and political contexts of Newfoundland and Labrador, consists of three papers. Each paper is independent, but together the three papers form a continuum revolving around the premise that the societal, economic, and educational changes that have occurred, and are continuing to take place in Newfoundland and Labrador, have implications for the delivery of counselling and psychological services in this province's schools. -- Paper One establishes that Newfoundland and Labrador is in the midst of social and economic changes which precipitated educational reform. Paper Two, making reference to Herdman Collegiate, discusses the impact that societal change has on the lives of high school students. Paper Three discusses the delivery of counselling and psychological services within a climate of societal change and fiscal restraint.
