The journal focuses on schooling transformation, pesantren studies, Islamic education, educational leadership, curriculum development, pedagogical innovation, educational policy, and socio-religious educational dynamics in contemporary Muslim societies.

The journal welcomes interdisciplinary and globally engaged scholarship that critically examines the relationship between formal schooling, pesantren institutions, Islamic intellectual traditions, and contemporary educational transformation. JSPS encourages contributions that move beyond descriptive educational narratives toward theoretically informed, empirically grounded, and methodologically rigorous studies.
JSPS particularly promotes research exploring curriculum and pedagogy, Islamic educational philosophy, school culture, pesantren modernization, digital learning transformation, educational policy, social inclusion, character education, multicultural education, gender perspectives in education, and community-based learning practices within local and global contexts.
