Abstract: This study therefore seeks to explore the role of guidance and counselling in the life of students, in the Madina-Adenta Municipality in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. It is specifically seeks to assess the extent to which senior high schools in the Madina-Adenta Municipality have adopted guidance and counselling and evaluate the effect of guidance and counselling services on the students in the Madina-Adenta Municipality. The study used purposive sampling to select both private and a government school, who have form 3 students. A simply random sampling is employed in getting the students to responses to the survey questions. It became clear from the result that females sought counselling more than the male students. The students do not usually seek counselling from their teachers or dedicated staff but relied more on their peers. These negative forces of peer pressure drive them into most of the undisciplined behaviours that largely can affect their academic performance and gradually wade away their desire for a good future career. It is recommended that students are trained as peer counselling. More peer counselling programmes in the SHS schools.
