Introduction

Human Resources (HR) is one of the determining factors in building the order of the State and the progress of a nation. Quality humans have quality education, which is formed from the results of the school environment and outside of school. Through education, each individual can improve knowledge, skills and potential to the fullest that exists within themselves (Amanchukwu, Stanley, & Ololube, 2015). Each individual can master advances in technology, science, and knowledge broadly, which continues to develop in society and can become a tough individual and ready to face challenges in life. However, quality education is not enough just to provide knowledge (Shum & Ferguson, 2012). Still need supporting factors such as the professionalism of educators, administrative management and school bureaucracy, as well as the ability of students to make decisions independently to achieve their goals and what they want (Tschannen-Moran & Gareis, 2015).

Senior High School (SLTA) is a level of education that plays an important role in developing various aspects that exist in students�starting from the personal, social, learning and even career aspects that will lead to the world of lectures or work. Students are in the middle adolescence phase at this high school level and moving towards the late adolescence phase. Undergoing this process, of course, is not easy. There needs to be guidance from parents at home and teachers at school. So, Guidance and Counseling have a link and play an important role in helping students develop their potential, make students who are moral and have character, and produce good and quality personalities (Bond, 2015).

Article 3 of Law 20/2003 concerning the National Education System states that national education aims to develop the potential of students to become human beings who believe and are devoted to God Almighty, have a noble character, are healthy, knowledgeable, capable, creative, independent, and become citizens. A democratic and responsible state. To realize the goals of national education, a quality education system is needed, namely education that integrates three fields, namely administration, curricula and guidance and counselling. So, to realize quality education to achieve national education goals, it is clear that Guidance and Counseling are necessary (Mardiana, 2017).

Decree of the Minister of Education and Culture No. 025/ 0/ 1995 suggests that Guidance and Counseling is an assistance service for students, both individually and in groups, to be able to be independent and develop optimally in the fields of personal guidance, social guidance, study guidance, career guidance through various types of services and activities. Supporters, based on applicable norms (Jayanti, 2016).

The counsellor's responsibility is to control and simultaneously carry out various guidance and counselling services and activities in carrying out their duties and responsibilities. The counsellor becomes a "servant" to achieve educational goals, meet needs, and achieve student development goals (Rahmiati, 2018). Students still think that those entering the Guidance and Counseling room are students with problems, but that is not entirely the case. Instead, they will be formed into moral and intellectual individuals and develop potential.

If students are interested in participating in implementing guidance and counselling services, it will run well. The implementation of guidance and counselling services is carried out optimally, so students' perception will be good because this is influenced by perception, namely the process of responding to and providing views on the stimulus given to students.

The goal to be achieved through this research is to describe students' perceptions of the implementation of information services in Class XI senior high schools in the Bayah district. Based on the background of the problem and the results of an initial survey of students in senior high schools in the Bayah District, the problems in this study can be identified: There are still teachers who are Guidance and Counseling Teachers with non-guidance and counselling backgrounds; Some students revealed that the provision of information services was not by what students needed; Students who still have negative perceptions of the implementation of guidance and counselling services in schools. So the formulation of the problem in this study is "How are Student Perceptions of the Implementation of Information Services in Class XI Senior High Schools in Bayah District, Lebak Regency, Banten Province".
