Abstract

The study on the student care and support system and the need for social workers in the secondary education area, Samut Prakan Province has the objective of studying the student care and support system in the Samut Prakan secondary education area to study the need for social workers in secondary schools. The sample population of high school students in the Samut Prakan Secondary Educational Service Area totaled 397 people. The results of the research found that Students are in good family backgrounds and do not have any involvement with drugs, but most students often witness violent behavior within the school. Counselors can advise students in cases where students are stressed, anxious, or in need of help. The school places great importance on students. There are promotional activities for students and students participate in activities organized by the school. Most students know about social workers at a moderate level, so it is possible that students do not yet understand the role of social workers in schools, but students think that social workers can help reduce depression and suicide among students
