with the emergence of multiculturalism and the opening up of schools to all
races in South Africa, the education system is undergoing enormous
changes. Educators and pupils are faced with unfamiliar cultures, languages
and backgrounds. This diversity has resulted in a need for schools to evolve
I with the changing circumstances. The complexities associated with racial
integration necessitates an educational programme suitable to meet the
I needs of our culturally diverse society. A change strategy is necessary to
provide teachers with a multicultural approach to education which is
ultimately aimed at providing pupils o e cultures with equal
opportunities to learn and succeed in a multicultural society.
It is the concern of this dissertation to examine the role and function of the
school guidance counsellor in attempting to meet the needs of educators, and
pupils coming from different cultural, ethnic, racial and socio-economic
backgrounds. / Psychology of Education / M. Ed. (Psychology of Education)
