The Education of Natural Science Journal applies a double blind peer review process. Each submission of the manuscript will be reviewed minimum of two independent reviewers, followed by editorial comments. Editor-in-Chief or editor, in accordance with the field of research, will provide a decision of acceptance/rejection. The journal follows a systematic peer review and publication policy:

Step - 1: The submitted manuscript is acknowledged within 12-24 hours upon receipt.

Step - 2: The editor checks the manuscript related to the suitability of the theme with the focus and the scope of the journal.

Step - 3: The manuscript is sent to a reviewer. The practice of peer review is to ensure that only good article is published. It is an objective process at the heart of good scholarly publishing and is carried out by all reputable journals. The peer review process takes maximum two weeks.

Step - 4: The review reports are collected from the reviewer and the editor will send the review reports to the authors including all terms and conditions of the publication.

Step - 5: If the paper is accepted subject to modification, the editor will send the review reports to the author/corresponding author, including a formal request to modify the paper within seven days as per the suggestions of the reviewers. The author will send the modified paper to the same reviewer of the said paper to justify the modifications. If the paper is again returned by the reviewer, the paper is said to be finally rejected. The journal will not proceed with the said paper. However, in case of very minor changes, the editorial board may consider the paper for further modifications.

Step - 6: The accepted paper is processed for publication (soft copy) upon the successful completion of the journal’s terms and conditions.  

Step - 7: Proofreading. The editor will send the processed paper for publication (MS Word) to the author/corresponding author for proofreading.

Step - 8: The paper is published online first. The editor will notify the author/corresponding author about online publication with the necessary download link. The author/corresponding author may request any correction in the published paper (in case of extremely important changes) within one week of online publication.

Step - 9: The journal is published in print within one until two weeks of online publication.

Step - 10: The editor will ask the authors of the published papers to send their correct and complete mailing address (with proper ZIP Code and postal code) within one week after print publication.

Step - 11: The editor will send the hard copy of the Education of Natural Science Journal if possible to the authors within one or two months after print publication.
