Back to School Prayers

Back to School Prayers

As children in the UK head back into the classroom, here are prayers you can use to pray into the issue of education, both here in the UK and around the world!

Prayers for children in the UK

Father we pray for children and young people in the UK as they enter the new school year. We thank you for the incredible access to education we have in this country. We pray for children to know your peace as they head into new situations. Amen

Back to school prayers for children born into poverty 

Lord God, we give thanks for your provision for the thousands of children and young people we work alongside. Thank you for giving them access to education. Thank you for their passion and dedication to learning.

We pray for those who have exams in the next couple of months. Help them to focus and study hard, yet also grant them Your peace and the knowledge that You have good plans for them. Be with students who are learning vocational skills. We pray the activities and workshops at their projects will equip them well for the future.

We ask this in Your son’s name.

Amen
