The audience of this journal includes initial teacher education providers and early childhood organisations. However, the majority of readers work in early childhood settings. Consequently, articles should be relevant to practitioners and encourage professional reflection. We accept material that is based on accepted good practice, preferably with clear examples from working with children and adults.

Please see the Author Guidelines for complete information for your submission.

Editor support

Early Education offers editor-reviewed articles so that teachers and emerging researchers are supported to share ideas stemming from both research and practice. Editors are happy to work with you before and after your submission. If you are a teacher or emerging researcher please do not feel that you are on your own when you write. We are happy to look at your draft and give advice. Once submitted we also work with you to ensure your submission meets the expectations for the journal.
