The Journal of Whole Schooling is an international, refereed publication dedicated to exploring ways to improve learning and schooling for all children.
Articles in the Journal will focus on analysis, use, research and practice related to the Six Principles of Whole Schooling listed in the graphic on the right. See the website of the Whole Schooling Consortium for information.
The Journal aims to provide a place for many voices concerned with education and learning -- researchers, parents, teachers, students, community members, policy makers. The Journal will include a range of types of articles -- scholarly research, experiences of teachers, parents, and students, commentary, policy analysis and more. We have made a commitment for a Journal based on both rigorous standards of quality and providing editorial support to people with important messages but limited experience in writing.
Please contact us if you have feedback or questions about submissions.
