ABSTRACT
The study was set to find out the effects of guidance and counseling in relation to ECDE. The researcher looked into the implementation of guidance and counseling programme, behavioural change and challenges encountered by the teacher counselors. The study was carried out in Kocholwo Zone, Metkei Division, Keiyo District. It involved lower primary pupils, headteachers, teachers and parents. The researcher reviewed relevant literature related to the study. The study was designed in form of a survey. It involved ten primary school teachers, five head teachers ten parents and fifteen pupils. Out of the forty sampled elements, twenty respondents sent their dully filled questionnaires in good time. It was then analyzed by use of descriptive statistics in order to determine the frequencies and percentages in tabular form. The findings showed that there were indiscipline cases in lower primary e.g. truancy, absenteeism among others. Lack of guidance and counseling involvement in handling the learner's indiscipline cases, by performance and behavioural change. The researcher also found that there are old aged learners in lower primary like Kibet Tanui of standard II aged 16 years. It was concluded that the school administration should fully involve teacher counselors and parents in handling the ECD learners' problems. The researcher recommends the ministry of Education to train more guidance and counseling teachers to handle ECDE learners. The parents and community should also be sensitized on the importance of guidance and counseling in ECDE institutions e.g. Pre-Primary and lower primary.
