The teacher resume format schools expect
A teacher resume is organised around eligibility and classroom evidence. Principals look first at your qualifications, such as B.Ed, TET or CTET, then at the subjects and classes you taught and what your students achieved. The format below puts these in the order that school managers scan.

Frequently asked questions
Should a teacher resume include a photo?
Many schools in India ask for a passport photo, so keep one ready and add it only if requested.
What is the best format for a fresher teacher?
Start with qualifications, then teaching practice, internships and skills, and tick the Fresher option if you have no school experience.
Do I need to list every subject I can teach?
List the main subjects and classes you are strongest in. A focused list is more convincing than a long one.
