Pray for Schools fortnight – 10-24 May 2010
Bringing together anyone in your area who has a heart to pray for schools for an evening of thanksgiving, strategic planning and intercession. We have free resources available to help you get started, and more will be sent to you when you register your event.

Back to School Sunday
Late August/early September Encourage your church to pray for, and ‘commission’ the children, teachers and schools workers who are returning to school for the new academic year. In Scotland this is held at the end of August – we suggest a Sunday in September for England, Wales and Northern Ireland

Pray Day for Schools
Third Thursday in November. A Europe-wide prayer event promoting prayer in, and for, schools. Information and logos are available from www.prayday.eu and the resource pack will be available in early September

Education Sunday
This is the day when churches throughout the UK join to offer to God the work of education, in schools of all kinds, in colleges and universities and in the church. It is the time to celebrate the achievements of education, to recognise the challenges, and support and pray for all who are involved in education.
