On the National Day of Prayer for Schools we encourage Christians across the UK to set aside time to pray for their local schools. This year, join us in praying for the education system in our country, and for children, young people, teachers, non-teaching staff, visiting organisations, and Christians who support in the schools and colleges within your community on Friday 26th September 2025.

How to get involved

 

Prayer Zooms:

Join us on Zoom for 45 minutes at 7am and/or 1pm on Friday 26th September to pray with others across the country for our schools.

Pray with others in your community:

Get together with other Christians from your church or in your local community on the National Day of Prayer for Schools and pray for your local schools. You could do this in a variety of ways:

  • Go on a prayer walk together
  • Pray outside your local school(s)
  • Put together a creative prayer space with activities to prompt prayers
  • Organise a prayer gathering
  • Get together with Christians you know who work in schools and pray for them and their school

Encourage children and young people to pray:

Our resource ‘5 ways to engage young people in praying for their schools’ under our resources tab includes some ideas to help you encourage children and young people to pray for their schools.

Use our prayer prompts:

Under the resources tab there are several documents you can use to prompt individual or group prayers throughout the day on Friday 26th September.
