Formal Letter to the Principal for School Leaving Certificate

School Leaving Certificate (SLC) is given by a school to its students when they leave school permanently after successful completion of their class curriculum.

Generally, after the exam results are declared and the students are to leave the school permanently, the school arranges to provide the School Leaving Certificate to all of its students for that grade, so that there is not any issue at a later stage and knowing that they are going to apply for higher education probably.

However, in some cases, a student may not have obtained the SLC after leaving the school. Then either he or his parents can apply for SLC to the school.

Following formats can be used after filling in the blanks and modifying it suitably as needed.
