The Education & Theatre Journal is a peer-reviewed publication for the promotion of theatre, educational drama and other performing arts in education, published by the Hellenic Theatre/Drama & Education Network (TENet-Gr). Academic articles are anonymously reviewed by at least two members of the Academic-Advisory Committee and/or Special Scientific Collaborators. The articles that are eventually published express the views of the authors and not necessarily those of the Editing Committee. The authors retain copyright, but all publishing rights belong to the publisher (Hellenic Theatre/Drama & Education Network). The journal is published once a year at the invitation of the Editing Committee and may at times include special features on various themes edited by different editors each time, with the agreement of the Editing and Academic-Advisory Committees.

The journal publishes mainly (a) original academic articles and research following anonymous peer review. It may also include a limited number of (b) presentations of innovative projects and (c) summaries of doctoral dissertations. At the invitation of the Editing Committee, a limited number of d) viewpoints, e) conference reports, f) interviews may be published.
