- SEND and AI implementation guidance
- Safe practice for children and young people, and effective AI training and CPD for teacher use.
Article types include:
Research: Summaries of current original research (including practitioner research) with their implications for pedagogy
Perspectives: Pieces offering a clear, balanced, research-informed review or critique of a particular topic within the issue theme
Case studies: Detailed studies of single settings or occurrences with clearly defined boundaries, such as a pedagogical intervention, an assessment initiative or an approach to CPD in a particular context
Reflections: Teachers discussing a specific piece of research and how it has informed their practice.
Submissions
The Chartered College of Teaching is committed to furthering equality, diversity and inclusion across our organisation, and we seek to promote a range of voices in Impact and all our content to ensure that our work is fully representative of the teaching profession. We encourage authors with protected characteristics, particularly relating to race, religion or belief, disability and sexual orientation, as we know that these areas are underrepresented in our content. We welcome submissions from all prospective authors, across the full range of phases and settings, including early career teachers.
If you wish to submit to this issue, we ask that you submit a short overview of your article in the first instance, using the form below. This overview should provide some details of your context before describing how your piece will cover your chosen topic. We will then select submissions to take forward, ensuring that we have coverage of a range of settings, contexts and approaches. Please be aware that accepted submissions will be published online only, on our Research Hub, in June. All content for this project will be open access and available to all.

Are you interested in reviewing articles for Impact?
Impact is the practitioner journal of the Chartered College of Teaching. It connects research findings to classroom practice, with a focus on the interests and voices of teachers and educators.
Each issue is peer-reviewed, helping us to ensure that articles are original, methodologically rigorous and relevant for teachers. The purpose of the review process is to provide constructive feedback to support authors in developing their articles.
We welcome the views of both researchers and teachers with experience and knowledge across the wide range of themes covered in each issue. Peer reviewers are asked to critically assess the quality, clarity and relevance of articles for a teacher audience. We provide guidance for our peer reviewers, so prior experience of reviewing is not necessary.
Impact is published termly, and we are usually most in need of reviewers in November/December, March and June.
If you would like to be added to our reviewer database, please complete the form below and we will get in touch with you with relevant articles in due course. If you have any questions or problems with accessing the form, please email journal@chartered.college
