Aims and Scope
The journal’s primary focus is on studies of educational leadership and teaching as ways to improve student academic outcomes at the elementary and secondary levels of education. The emphasis of the journal is on empirical research and review study, we also embrace reflection and policy analysis from practitioners. We appreciate traditional and emergent theoretical frameworks and various research methods. International comparative investigations are welcome to the extent they have implications for a broad audience and further promote the inquiry into the problems of the journal’s focus.
