SAPES was founded over half a century ago in order to:

promote the fundamental philosophical study of education

promote the philosophical treatment of the problems and issues of education through the opportunities afforded by annual meetings

advance and improve teaching and scholarship in the philosophy of education in schools for the education of teachers and other educators

cultivate fruitful working relationships in philosophy of education among educators, educational philosophers, and philosophers in general

encourage promising students in the field of philosophy of education.

Today, SAPES consists of scholars from various disciplinary backgrounds who meet annually to discuss issues related to the philosophy of education and other foundational concerns. Included are philosophers, historians, sociologists and anthropologists of education as well as others whose work illuminates the relationship between schools and wider society. Past meetings were devoted to such topics as Politics and the Future of Academic Freedom, Building Bridges, Education and the Market Ideology and War, Terror, Violence and the Responsibility of Educators.
