Submission and review
Articles submitted to JES should not be under consideration by any other journal, or have been published elsewhere, although previously published research may be submitted having been rewritten to facilitate access by professionals working in the birth to 11-year age range and with clear implications of the research on policy, practice and provision.
Please send all submissions to: lauratownsend@ase.org.uk in electronic form. Books for review should be addressed to Jane Hanrott, ASE, College Lane, Hatfield, Herts., AL10 9AA.
Submitted articles are reviewed by the Editor, Editorial Board and/or guest reviewers. The peer review process generally requires three months. JES is keen to support publication of articles from practitioners, so do get in touch if you would like further assistance.
