Teaching is an honourable
profession, and deserves recognition as such. But
Christians, and others, often call it a vocation. Dr
Rowan Williams, then Archbishop of Wales, wrote on the
subject of vocation in 2001. The article is published as
an appendix to Lord Dearing's report on Church schools,
The Way
ahead.

Education Sunday
is celebrated each year on the 9th Sunday before Easter.
In 2003, the theme, 'Teaching is for Life', explored the
vocation to teach. If you would like to pray and think
about teaching as a vocation, you will find resources to
help you in the material produced for that year:
Education Sunday leaflet for 2003: Teaching is for Life
(PDF file, 80 KB).
There is also information for churches about Vocation and How Christians who are teachers become Christian teachers in the Parishes section of this web site.
