Resignation letter from a teacher is a letter intimating his or her intention to leave the job voluntarily from the school or the teaching institution, where he or she is currently working.
If the school has any specific form to be filled up at the time of resigning, the teacher will have to fill that up and submit. Otherwise, the teacher can write a simple resignation letter with all the essential details mentioned in it.
1) Name of the teacher;
2) Designation in the school;
3) Date of resignation immediately (if no notice period is required to be served);
4) Future effective date of resignation (if notice period is required to be served);
5) Handing over formalities status (completed or not) (to whom done);
6) Reason of leaving the job (generally it's not described in detail, only a hint is given);
The date mentioned at the top of the letter will be :
i) the date of resignation - if no date of resignation is specifically mentioned in the contents of the letter);
ii) the date of writing the letter or submission date (if submitted on the same day) - if date of resignation is specifically mentioned in the contents of the letter.
