This theme welcomes research and commentary relating to the management of out-of-field teaching by schools, government, universities. Given the complexity of the out-of-field phenomenon, management involves governments, school administrators and leaders, teachers, researchers and even the general public. We encourage submissions that report on research, policy and practice that can contribute to our understanding of all aspects of the phenomenon. Post-graduate students and early career researchers are welcome.
