Submissions: the editorial team invites contributions for consideration from those involved in the development of spirituality in children and young people. These may be in the field of research, from teachers engaged in action research, theoretical papers or issues of wider concern.

Three copies of each manuscript should be submitted. These should be typed on one side of the paper, double spaced with ample margins. All three should bear the title of the contribution. Two should remain anonymous for referee purposes and the thrid should include the name(s) of the authors, and the address where the work was carried out. They should bear the title of the contribution, name(s) of the author(s), and the address where the work was carried out. Articles should be accompanied by an abstract/summary of 100-150 words on a separate sheet, and a further sheet giving brief autobiographical details. The full postal address of the author to whom all correspondence and offprints should be sent should also be included: if possible, an e-mail address should also be listed. All pages should be numbered. Footnotes to the text should be avoided wherever possible.
Contributors should bear in mind that they are addressing an international audience. Jargon should be avoided where possible and all authors should use non-discriminatory language. In empirical reports the breakdown of the research sample (e.g. class, race, ethnicity, sex, age and disability) should be clearly stated and acknowledged in the discussion. Authors should define their choice of terms clearly.
Tables, figures and captions to illustrations. Tables and figures should be completely understandable independent of the text. Tables must be typed on separate sheets and not included as part of the text. The captions to illustrations should be gathered together and typed on a separate sheet. Tables and figures should be numbered using Arabic numerals. The approximate position of tables and figures should be indicated in the manuscript. Please supply clear copies of artwork for figures in a finished form suitable for reproduction. Figures will not normally be redrawn by the publisher.
