Role of Peer Counselors in the Promotion of Student Discipline in Ugunja Sub-County, Kenya  \n1Lecturer, Siaya Institute of Technology, Kenya 2Lecturer, Maseno University, Kenya  \n3 PhD Candidate, Jaramogi Odinga Oginga University of Science and Technology, Kenya  \n4,5Lecturer, Jaramogi Oginga Odinga University of  \nScience and Technology ( 􀀣 Corresponding Author)  \nAbstract  \nIn spite of the existence of guidance and counseling services in schools in Siaya County for the management of discipline, in 2012, 32 schools went on the rampage. This scenario was suspected to be  occasioned by lack of an effective alternative strategy to contain student indiscipline. The purpose of this  study was to determine the role of peer counseling in promoting discipline among students in public  secondary schools in Ugunja Sub-County, Kenya. The study adopted descriptive survey design. The  population of the study comprised of 3500 students from public secondary schools. The researchers used the Table of Krejcie and Morgan to determine the sample size of 246. Instruments for data collection  were questionnaires and interview schedules. Piloting was done in 4 institutions to obtain the instruments  reliability. Face validity of the instruments was ascertained by the experts from the Department of  Psychology and Educational Foundations. Quantitative data was analyzed using descriptive statistics  such as frequency counts, and percentages. Qualitative data was analyzed using thematic analysis. The  study findings indicated that peer counseling has a significant role in promoting discipline among  students in public secondary schools. The study recommends that peer counselors should be motivated in  order for them to perform optimally.  \nKeywords: Peer counselling, Student discipline, Public secondary schools, Discipline management  \nContents  \n1.
