Beginning with Volume 22, Issue 1 (2026), Forum Multimedia Publishing will officially oversee global publishing, distribution, and promotion of International Journal of Whole Schooling (IJWS). This collaboration marks a new milestone in IJWS's development. Leveraging its advanced digital publishing platform, international market network, and commitment to advancing open science, Forum Multimedia Publishing will inject new vitality into this prestigious journal, enhancing its global impact.

To provide seamless academic services for authors, editorial board members, and readers, key arrangements are announced as follows:

1. New Submission Channel

Effective immediately, the journal's original editorial submission email address will no longer accept new manuscripts. All new submissions must be made through Forum Multimedia Publishing's online submission and editorial system (https://ijws.forummmpub.com/).

2. Core Commitments: Continuity and Stability

We solemnly pledge that this change in publisher will not affect the journal's core identity and academic traditions, specifically including:

• Journal title and ISSN number
• Publication format and high-quality content standards
• Core scope and editorial policies

3. Editorial Board Assurance

The journal's academic leadership and content quality will continue to be safeguarded by a robust core editorial board. Dr. Jonathan Chitiyo serve as Editor-in-Chief, while founding Editor Dr. Michael Peterson as Consulting Editor, providing strategic guidance for the journal's long-term development. The entire editorial team will remain stable, ensuring the continuity of rigorous academic standards and authority.
