Unless agreed otherwise all accepted papers become the copyright of Teacher Development.

All contributions (including where relevant, abstract, quotations, tabular material, references, etc.) should be presented in English. Each contribution should bear a title, name(s) of the author(s) and full contact address (including electronic mail address and telephone number) for proofs and correspondence.

Normally, articles should be between 4000 and 6000 words, although in exceptional circumstances longer articles are considered, and should contain in addition to the main text:

Manuscripts should be sent as an email attachment to Sarah Delmas at editing@mail.com

Manuscripts submitted should be original, not under review by any other publication and not published elsewhere.

All pages should be numbered. Footnotes to the text should be avoided. Sponsorship of research reported (e.g. by research councils, government departments and agencies, etc.) should be declared. To allow refereeing, all submissions must be properly formatted for anonymous reviewing. Authors' names, institutions and email addresses should be typed on a separate sheet and submitted with the manuscript. The full postal and email address of the author who will check proofs and receive correspondence and offprints should also be included.

Each paper should be accompanied on separate sheets by an abstract of 100 to 150 words, and five keywords which describe the content, methodological approaches and distinctive findings of the research. These keywords will be used to support online searches so it is important that they represent your article as comprehensively as possible.

Figures. Please supply one set of artwork in a finished form, suitable for reproduction. Figures will not normally be redrawn by the publisher.

Titles of journals and names of publishers, etc. should not be abbreviated. Acronyms for the names of organisations, examinations, etc. should be preceded by the title in full.
