Whether you are looking to pray for your local schools individually, as a church or as a community, or whether you are looking to engage your children and young people in prayer. This page is full of resources to help and guide you.
We believe wholeheartedly in the power of non-stop prayer, and our children and young people are a key part of this!
“I never knew prayer could be this fun” – Quote from a Year 5 boy running through a Prayer Space in a School
Education Sunday (8th September 2024) is a special Sunday on which churches across England and Wales pray for all those who work in education, and pray for all those who learn. It has been celebrated for over 100 years.

We are inviting you to join us as we pray for Schools in Great Britain.
Get involved in these creative ways to pray!
Join 24-7 Prayer, Limitless, and Dreaming The Impossible, along with many of our friends to facilitate a gathering of young people from 13:00-17:00. We will be praying, worshipping, and seeking God as we call this generation to contend for a nation.
Prayer Spaces in Schools enable children and young people, of all faiths and none, to explore life’s questions, spirituality and faith in a safe, creative and interactive way. Prayer spaces give children and young people an opportunity to develop skills of personal reflection and to explore prayer in an open, inclusive and safe environment. The approach purposely allows pupils to make their own meaning and to draw their own conclusions.
You may be a parent, a children’s worker or a youth worker. You may be a pupil or a teacher, or maybe you’re involved in schools in some other way. Whoever you are, we’re delighted that you’re considering running a Prayer Space, follow the link to Get Started!
For this session we are looking at classroom spaces, and specifically how to run a great lesson.
Many schools host a prayer space where classes can come to explore prayer as part of a lesson. But a prayer space is a very different kind of lesson – one where the pupils engage and respond, discover and learn individually. So how can we lead these lessons well, ensure pupils get the best experience from the prayer space and manage any concerns or challenges that might crop up?
