Sixth Form Colleges (along with the general Further Education sector) in England and Wales have of late begun to appoint new chaplains and to set aside space for quiet, prayer and reflection.

Additionally, given the dearth in rationale for the existence of "sacred" spaces in educational contexts some tentative remarks are made towards one. (Contains 4 notes.)
