Abstract
The objective of this research was to establish referral of learners with Emotional and Behaviour Disorders (EBD) in Juvenile Schools (JS) in Kenya. Social learning theory which depicts that individuals learn from each other in their daily activities was relied on. A cross sectional descriptive research approach was used. The target population comprised of 646 respondents. Probabilistic sampling techniques were applied while questionnaires, interview schedules, focus group discussion, document analysis and observation schedules were used for data collection. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected. It was found that referral from juvenile justice system was majorly practiced as opposed to empirical recommendation of a school system referral. The implication being that a linkage of regular and JS referral avenues ought to be practiced.
