Are all fields on the DS-260 mandatory?

Most fields on the DS-260 are mandatory. You may leave fields marked “Optional” blank. Some fields may also give you the option to select “Does Not Apply.” If a field does not apply to you, you may mark the box next to “Does Not Apply.” All other fields must be completed: the application  will not  allow you to submit a form with any mandatory fields left blank. In this instance, an error message will be displayed and you will be required to complete the field before continuing with the application.

69,000 Teachers Recruitment: Protests Outside Minister Anupriya Patel's Residence, Demand Appointment Letters

69,000 teacher aspirants protested outside minister anupriya patel's residence, demanding appointments as per high court orders..

A group of 69,000 teacher aspirants from reserved categories staged a protest outside the residence of Minister Anupriya Patel, demanding their appointment letters. The protesters insisted on meeting the minister to present their three key demands: compliance with the High Court's order, the release of a new merit list for appointments, and the removal of those responsible for the previous list.

The protest, which has been ongoing for some time, took a serious turn when a young woman among the protesters fell ill inside the residence of Minister Ashish Patel. The woman was taken inside the residence for medical attention as her condition worsened.

According to the information, Ashish and Anupriya are currently not at their residence; they are in Prayagraj. They will meet with the candidates upon their return. The protesters are determined to continue their demonstration until their demands are met, intensifying the pressure on the government to act.

Tuesday morning, candidates from the reserved category also surrounded the Apna Dal (S) party office. The candidates are sitting in protest in front of the minister's house, demanding the implementation of the decision given by the double bench of the Lucknow High Court. Hundreds of candidates have gathered here, continuously raising slogans. A heavy police force has also been deployed at the site during the protest.

Amrendra Patel, leading the protest, said that the recruitment process began in 2018. When the results were announced, a significant injustice was done to the reserved category candidates, and they were deprived of jobs. After a long struggle and judicial process, on August 13, 2024, the double bench of the Lucknow High Court ruled in favor of the reserved category candidates, ordering the government to appoint them following the rules.

However, the government is procrastinating on this matter. We demand that the government resolve this issue promptly and release a schedule indicating when the appointments for us affected candidates will be made.

https://educationhub.blog.gov.uk/2024/09/02/how-to-claim-15-hours-free-childcare-code/

Hundreds of thousands of parents can now access 15 hours free childcare for 9-month-olds – how to apply

Hundreds of thousands of eligible working parents can now access 15 hours government-funded early education for children aged 9-months-old and older after new rules kicked in from 1 September 2024.

Those who are eligible to take advantage of the scheme this term should have already received their code and secured a childcare place.

Also, from today, eligible working parents who plan to take up a funded place from January 2025 can now apply for a code. If they’re starting a new job or returning from parental leave this may affect when they’re eligible - more information on this below.

It's worth noting that some providers may charge for extra services, such as providing lunch and nappies, or optional extras such as trips, in addition to the government funded childcare . Visit  childcarechoices.gov.uk  for further information.

When can I apply and how do I get my code? 

Applications are open for eligible working parents whose children will be aged at least 9-months-old on or before 31 December 2024.

This can be combined with the universal 15 hours to make 30 hours childcare when your child turns 3 or 4.

When you apply, you’ll receive a code to give to your childcare provider.

It’s important to remember that  codes need to be renewed every three months . To do this, you’ll need to remember to login to your childcare account to check when your reconfirmation dates are, so that you can renew your code on time. If you don’t renew it on time, you will need to reapply.

You can claim your place the term after your child turns the relevant age. This gives local authorities and childcare providers enough time to prepare.

There is no limit on the number of codes available. However, if you’re applying for childcare to start in January 2025, we recommend that you reach out to your preferred provider  as soon as possible  to check when they will need your code.

We know that it may be difficult at this stage to secure your first-place provider. If you are struggling to find a place you should contact your local authority, who will be able to help source a local provider offering the entitlements.

How do I apply?  

You apply online here on  gov.uk  once you have checked our  eligibility criteria .

You’ll need to make sure you have the following information to hand before starting the application:

• your national insurance number (or unique taxpayer reference if you are self-employed)
• the date you started or are due to start work
• details of any government support or benefits you receive
• the UK birth certificate reference number (if you have one) for your child.

You may find out if you’re eligible straight away, but it can take up to 7 days.

Once your application has been approved, you’ll get a code to give to your childcare provider.

Eligible parents are also able to access tax-free childcare through the same application system. You can apply for tax-free childcare at any time.

However, you don't need to apply for tax-free childcare to be eligible to apply for the 15 hours childcare scheme.

Can I apply for government-funded childcare if I’m on parental leave?

Yes, you can.

If you’re applying for childcare for an older child, who is not the reason for your parental leave, you can continue to apply in the usual way.

For parents applying for funded childcare for the child who is the reason for your parental leave, you can apply for a childcare code at the same time as everyone else as long as you plan to return to work from parental leave or start a new job by the end of January 2024.

Parents on parental leave will need to apply online. They may be told their application is ‘pending’ if it is more than 31 days before they return to work, but they will still receive a letter in the post within 1 to 2 weeks so they can access their childcare entitlement.

Parents starting new work before 31 January can call HMRC on 0300 123 4097 to receive a code.

What if I’m on parental leave and returning to work after 1 February 2025? 

Parents who plan to start or return to work on or before 31 January 2025 can apply for a code from 1 September 2024 to use from 1 January 2025.

For parents starting or returning to work on or after 1 February 2025, the following dates will apply:

For the purposes of accessing the entitlement, taking annual leave after the end of your parental leave counts as having returned to work.

It is important to remember that if you are applying for childcare for an older child who is not the reason for your parental leave, you can apply regardless of your return-to-work date.

What happens once I receive my code? 

Once you receive your code, you’ll need to take it to your childcare provider, along with your National Insurance number and your child’s date of birth.

Your childcare provider will process the code to provide your place.

Your local authority can provide support for finding a government-funded place in your area. You can find out who your local authority is  here .

If I receive a code in a letter from HMRC, does this make my code on my Childcare Account invalid? 

No. Both codes will be valid.

If you have two codes, one from your letter beginning with 11 and one from the website beginning with 50, please give your provider the code from the website, as this is the permanent digital code for your child.

If you only have one code (beginning with 11) then you can use this code to start using your government-funded hours.

Please remember that once your reconfirmation window opens, you will still need to reconfirm your eligibility through your Childcare Account and share the digital code you receive with your provider.

Do I need to wait for my reconfirmation window to add another child to my account? 

A parent who is already using the childcare service for another child can add a new child to their account at any time.

Your reconfirmation cycle for your current Tax-Free Childcare won’t affect this.

What happens if I’m using an entitlement for my 2-year-old when they become 3?

Parents are able to access the universal 15 hours childcare support from the term after the child’s third birthday through to when they start school.

If your child is accessing the 15 hours entitlement for 2-year-olds and you remain eligible, your child will automatically be moved onto 30 hours (universal 15 hours + 15 hours for working parents) from the term after your child turns 3.

You will just need to keep reconfirming your code as normal, and it will become usable to claim 30 hours.

You should also speak to your provider to let them know you intend to take up 30 hours.

If you are accessing disadvantaged entitlement childcare for, you will also able to access the universal entitlement from the term after your child turns 3.

Mr. Umar Kabiru Green Peak School 123 Main Street Victoria Island Lagos

Dear Mr. Umar,

I am interested in applying for a secondary teaching position in your school. As a graduate of Yaba College of Education, I have required teaching experience on the JSS 1, 2 and 3 level, in both Physics and Mathematics. I believe my years of teaching experience, coupled with my passion for community engagement make me an ideal candidate for this teaching position.

I am currently teaching JSS 2 students at Bright Stars Secondary School and I have experience teaching secondary school students in a variety of settings. Having held the position of education coordinator at my previous roles, I also have experience in management in the school system. Based on my understanding that this position requires a teacher with varied experiences in the school system, I think my varied experiences would make me a valuable asset for your school.

Part of your school's mission is to engage students from diverse cultures. I have extensive experience incorporating teaching styles that promote cultural diversity and inclusion into my classrooms. For example, as a teacher at Bright Stars Secondary School, I helped the management incorporate Culture Times in the extracurricular activities for the students, which helps students learn about the different cultures of fellow students in a fun way.

My goal is to combine my wide experience and quality of being a compassionate and intelligent teacher to make positive contributions that will benefit your students, school district and community at large.

I hope to hear from you at your earliest convenience.

Sincerely, [signature hard copy letter] Jumoke Lawson

How to Write an Application Letter for a Teaching Job

Last Updated: December 11, 2023 Fact Checked

Applying for teaching positions can be daunting because of all of the materials you need to submit. Your cover letter is an especially important part of the application since it highlights your best skills. Writing an excellent cover letter can set you apart from other applicants, so it’s important to take your time and write a targeted letter for every application. Start by researching the position and getting all of the necessary information before you start writing. Then, use the intro and body paragraphs to emphasize your qualifications for the job. Conclude your letter by emphasizing your interest in the position and requesting an interview, and don’t forget to revise and proofread before you send your letter to the prospective employer.

Application Letter Template

Gathering Information Before Writing

• For example, if the position is for a Kindergarten teacher, then the position may indicate that you need to have undergone a preparatory teaching program.
• If the job posting is online, you can transfer the text into a word processor and highlight using the highlight tool.

• Make sure to find out the person’s preferred prefix. For example, if the hiring manager is a woman named Nancy Cardigan, ask if she goes by Ms., Mrs., or something else.

Warning : Never write “To whom it may concern” to start a cover letter! This is too informal and it makes your letter seem generic from the start.

• The school’s student population
• Special challenges facing the school, such as budgetary issues or overcrowding
• Extracurricular programs available to students

• For example, if you’re applying for a Spanish teacher position, you might want to mention your study abroad experience that enhanced your Spanish speaking skills, or your additional certification as a TESOL teacher.

Writing the Introduction and Body Paragraphs

• For example, you might list your address as “100 Main Street, Everytown, ND, 12345.”
• Then, after adding a space, list today’s date in long form, such as August 8th, 2019.

• For example, “Mrs. Sherri Mascarpone, Executive Director of Personnel, Sacramento School District, 1000 Johnson Lane, Sacramento, CA, 12345.”

• For example, you might start with “Dear Mr. Rodgers,” and then add a space and begin your introduction.

• For example, you might open with something like, “I’m writing to apply for the Math Teacher position that was advertised in this week’s paper.”
• It’s also a good idea to give the employer some indication of who you are, such as by mentioning where you attended school and when you graduated or expect to graduate. For example, you might follow your first sentence with something like, “As a recent graduate of Universal University’s teacher education program, I am well-qualified for the position.” [6] X Research source

• For example, you might write something like, “I’ve had a broad range of professional experiences that qualify me for the position, including working in the school district as a teacher’s aide while working on my college education, getting the opportunity to tutor at-risk youth in an after-school program run by a local charity, and completing my student teaching at this school.”

• For example, if you mention that you completed one of your student teaching rotations at the school you’re applying to work at, then you might expand on what you learned about the school and its teachers during that experience and how that knowledge would make you a good fit for this position.
• If you mentioned that you hold a special certification, then you might expand on how that could enhance your ability to fulfill the needs of the position to which you’re applying.

• For example, you might include a line about your persistence and refusal to give up on students who struggle with course material, or you might mention that your professors or former employers have praised you for your ingenuity in designing engaging lessons.

Tip : Try to be as specific as possible whenever you talk about your qualifications. Point to professional experiences, certifications, training, and other evidence to support your claims.

Concluding Your Letter

• For example, you might write something like, “Because of my professional experiences and special certifications, I’m very interested in the 7-12 French teacher position at Northwestern Central School.”

• Try saying something like, “Thank you for considering my application! I hope we can meet soon to discuss my qualifications further.” [14] X Research source
• You may also indicate when you’re available or suggest a time and date for an even stronger option. For example, you could say something like, “I’m available to meet in person most weekday mornings and on Friday afternoons.” Or, you could say, “I’m available next Friday afternoon between 1:00 and 4:00 pm if you’d like to schedule an interview.”

• For example, you might write something like, “My cell phone number is (123) 555-1234 and my email is [email protected].”

Tip : You can skip this if you have included this information on your resume.

Revising and Proofreading Your Letter

• For example, if the job posting emphasizes that the ideal candidate should have evidence that their teaching strategies are successful, then you might want to add more detail on the positive feedback you’ve received during teaching observations.

Tip : If you’re a recent graduate or student applying for a teaching position, you might ask your advisor to review your cover letter for you and provide feedback. If they’re unavailable, visit your college’s career development center and ask one of the career counselors to review it for you.

• Not making your letter more than 1 page long
• Describing your skills using action verbs similar to the ones in the job posting
• Avoiding long, intricate sentences that may be difficult to follow

• Try reading the letter out loud to help you spot any errors that you might miss while reading the letter silently.
• Don’t rely on your word processing software to catch errors. These programs are not foolproof for spotting errors.

• If you need to submit the letter electronically, convert it to PDF format.

Sample Application Letter for Teacher in Private School

Mrs. Madison B. Llego Principal St. Jerome Academy, Taguig City

Dear Ma’am;

I am writing to inform you of my intent to be a member of your faculty in the coming school year 2019-2019. I was informed by a colleague that you are in need of a MAPEH teacher. Given my tested teaching skills and experience, I know that I am surely qualified for the position.

I have been teaching for two years now and decided to leave my job seeking for a better place of opportunity where I can further develop my skills as an educator and where I can be exposed to more challenging professional atmosphere. Known for your competitiveness and efficacy, I know that your school will provide me the perfect working environment I am seeking for.

I have experienced teaching students in a variety of settings. Working as a MAPEH teacher in the previous private institution I belonged to, I have acquired the ability to challenge and motivate the students in understanding the importance of MAPEH. My willingness and enthusiasm towards teaching will surely help the students of your institution in valuing and practicing the discipline of Music, Arts, P.E. and Health.

Having been a licensed teacher for three years, I realized that they key to being an effective educator is to involve myself to continuous professional development and I believe your institution will surely provide me opportunities to join various teaching training program that will help me develop not just myself but my students.

I have also known that your school also endeavors to have its students engaged in the larger community. Having experienced a lot of community service projects while incorporating service into my classrooms in the previous years, I confidently affirm that I can help the school continue its endeavor.

I would be happy to welcome an interview and I am hoping to hear from you at your earliest convenience. You can find my contact number and other references I the curriculum vitae attached in this letter.

Thank you for considering my application.

It is smart for you to talk about your education in your application letter to give the employer a background of your qualification. You can also state your grades or the name of the institution that you graduated from especially if it is of high repute.

You can also talk about how you became interested in teaching. This will give the employer a glimpse of who you are and how you fit into the role.

5. Talk about your experience in teaching and the achievements that you have gotten so far.

When it comes to getting a teaching job in Nigeria, your experience is extremely important. Including your teaching experience in your application letter gives the employer an idea of your expertise in teaching.

You can talk about your experience in a way that the employer can see how you have progressed in your career. If you don’t have teaching experience, you can still talk about the experience that you have that is related to teaching.

For instance, if you have worked with the learning and development department in a corporate organization, you can talk about your experience in the company.

Always talk about your teaching experience that focuses on the accomplishments that you are most proud of.  

6. You can include your teaching techniques and values.

It is good that you outline how you like to teach, and the values you follow as a teacher shows more about who you are as an educator. You should include details about how you have built the value that you follow when you teach students.

You can also mention some of the skills that you have that makes you a great teacher. You can also make the employer understand the style of teaching that is most appropriate for the kind of students that you are looking to teach.

7. You can conclude with a positive closing.

It is good that you close your letter politely and positively by showing your appreciation to the reader for considering you for a role. You can include information about how you plan to follow up, indicate whether you want to call the hiring manager or send an email.

Dear MRS Susan,

APPLICATION FOR THE POST OF A CLASS TEACHER

I am writing this application letter in response to the open position for a class teacher at Great Height International School. I am a second-class graduate of the College of Education Lagos, and I have over 2 years of teachings experience at both the primary and secondary school’s levels. I believe that my passion for literacy in rural communities makes me an ideal candidate for a teaching position at your school.

I have experience in teaching secondary school students both professionally and in training. I have worked as a student teacher and a teaching assistant in the beginning part of my career. As a former education coordinator during my National Youth Service Corps. I also have experience in teaching primary school students. From the job description, I can see that your school caters for both children in local communities and children in urban areas. I think that my experience with local communities will make me a great candidate.

From my research, one advantage that your school has over other schools is how it inspires students to be a part of community development programs. I am passionate about building a safer environment so I try to incorporate it into my learning plans. In my previous job, I led a team of secondary school students to plant trees around the school’s compound. I would love to look for ways to integrate community development into my lessons.

I look forward to combining my years of experience with my ability to be a compassionate, passionate, and enthusiastic teacher who will make a positive contribution to your school and the community at large. 

I appreciate your consideration for the role, and I look forward to speaking with you further regarding the position. I am happy to answer any additional questions you may have.

John Adams.

Great work.  But the comment section is funny. He gave a template and even a sample. Yet you all are still requesting him to write letter for you. Wow. Will he still help to write lesson notes as well. Nigerians

Looks like most of the people commenting on this article can't even write a letter even when the article has taken the stress of explaining and providing templates for it, so my question then is, why even bother trying to be a teacher? what exactly do you have to offer if you are not literate enough to write an application letter honestly you shouldn't be teaching. While you are learning how to write a teaching application letter, maybe you should also learn these that'll keep you employed, "IF" you actually get accepted

Thank u 

Please help me write an application letter to a private primary school.
