In the context of the internationalization of educational policies after the Second World War, school counselling was an emerging field in the reforms undertaken in secondary education in Chile. It was understood as a realm with a double function. On the one hand, it had to guide students towards vocational decisions according to the needs of the country. In addition, it should induce processes of knowledge and emotional regulation in students. In this paper, it is synthetically addressed some aspects of the establishment of school counselors in the Lyceums as well as some of its challenges, especially regarding the second mentioned function.

Keywords : history of Chilean education; school counselling; transnational history; history of emotions.
