The Journal of Practice and Research in Teacher Leadership

The International Journal of Teacher Leadership (IJTL) is an online, open-access peer-reviewed journal of practice and research in teacher leadership. IJTL is published twice a year. The primary goal of IJTL is to provide both researchers and teachers of education significant sources of information based on recent advances in theory, research, and practice in teacher leadership.

The editors of the International Journal of Teacher Leadership (IJTL) invite you to submit manuscripts regarding teacher leadership issues to be considered for publication. We welcome submissions from a wide community of practitioners and researchers—from professors, teachers, administrators, leaders, trainers, specialists, and graduate students.

Call for Submissions for Spring 2025 Themed Issue:

Educator wellness is positively related to job satisfaction—when wellness improves, burnout and turnover are reduced (Roeser et al., 2012). As a response to increased professional stress, a focus on improving educator wellness and wellbeing has emerged.

In response to this focus, the International Journal of Teacher Leadership invites article submissions for the Spring 2025 Themed Issue on “Wellbeing and Wellness for Teachers, Teacher Leaders, and Teacher Educators.”

Important dates:

• January 31 – Submissions due to guest editors
• April 1 – Authors notified of acceptance/rejection and revision requests
• May 1 – Revisions due

For this themed issue, articles and questions should be emailed directly to guest editors, Jill Bradley-Levine & Sabre Cherkowski at: jsbradleylev@bsu.edu.
