English how-to · updated 2026
A daily school and office search — short, dated, and specific. This page has 50 important questions and answers. Original explainer for daily search — not a government login or live tracker.
A leave application is a short formal request: who you are, what dates you need, why (in one clean line), and how work or homework will be covered. Use a subject line, today’s date, and a polite close. WhatsApp is fine if your office said so — the same facts still belong in writing.
Sick leave: you do not need to publish a diagnosis. “I am unwell and will be away 6–7 September; I have handed X to Y” is enough. School notes often need a parent signature and the class/section.
Do not back-date a lie. HR and attendance systems keep logs. If you need half a day, say the hours.
