Focus and Scope

Journal of Education Policy Praxis (JEPP) is a national peer-reviewed academic journal that publishes original research articles and scholarly works focusing on education policy with a strong emphasis on praxis. The journal serves as an academic platform for examining how education policies are formulated, implemented, and evaluated within real educational contexts, particularly in Indonesia.

The journal promotes critical and evidence-based discussions that go beyond normative and regulatory perspectives. It encourages contributions that explore policy implementation processes, institutional dynamics, and practical challenges in educational settings. Articles are expected to bridge theoretical frameworks and empirical findings, providing insights into the real impacts of education policy on governance, teaching and learning processes, and educational quality.
