Subject: - Application for the post of Senior Co-Coordinator

Sir,

This is regarding your advertisement in Times of India dated 12 August 2015, for
the post of senior co-coordinator for your school. I wish to apply for this post.

I’m currently employed at Vasant Valley School, Gurgaon as a senior coordinator.


I have had a lot of experience in organizing various school fairs and carnivals. Our
school is well known in Gurgaon for its hands-on parents’ counseling workshops
as well as interactive activities for children and seminars, in which I’ve had the
privilege of collaborating with external agencies and organizations. I have also
organized several students’ camps in my school along with excursions. I recently
have received a commendation from my Principal for exemplary work done during
the CBSE evaluation. I am also suitable for this job because I have been known to
be a strict disciplinarian by my colleagues and yet at the same time, being liked
and respected by them as they feel that they can depend on me in case they have
problems.

I wish to leave my current job as I have long been impressed by the name and
prestige your school enjoys. Therefore, I would be obliged if you would kindly
consider my application.

Yours sincerely
Shahid Kukreja
