Is Lorcan Whitbourne a real person

No. He is invented for this page, and so are Halberry Primary School, Ferncroft National School and Maryhill Primary. No real child or setting is described, and no hire is claimed.

Did the product really write this letter

Yes. The evidence list was posted to the same endpoint the Write the letter button posts to, and the reply is printed above unchanged. The engine reported three selected paragraphs, two matched requirements and no gaps.

Should a part time application explain why the hours are part time

One clause in the profile line is enough, as here. The letter then spends its space on the work. A hiring manager advertising 20 hours has already decided that part time is acceptable.

Does an empty gaps list mean everything was covered

It means the two requirements the matcher recognised were both evidenced. Classroom support, phonics and lunchtime cover are named in the posting and are not in the matcher's vocabulary, so read the advertisement yourself as well.

What does “Use this example” do

It opens the cover letter builder on 02 · Details with the role, the school, the posting and the four evidence groups already loaded. No letter and no application record exists until you press Write the letter.

Which design is this example in

Correspondence, a sender and recipient grid. Any of the 12 designs carries the same words.

A part time cover letter that states the hours and then stops discussing them

One part time cover letter, printed exactly as the builder wrote it. The assistant and the school are invented. The selection came out of the product, and no gap came back.

— twenty hours is a fact, not an apology.

The Conxfolio cover letter builder on step 02 Details, opened by this page's own door, with the role Teaching Assistant, 20 hours, the company Halberry Primary School, the posting and the four evidence groups loaded — The Details step exactly as the door left it: Teaching Assistant, 20 hours at Halberry Primary School, the posting, and 17 evidence lines across profile, experience, achievements and skills, each one removable. No letter and no application record exists at this point.

Part time applications often spend half their length on the hours, which is the one thing the advertisement already settled. Lorcan Whitbourne is invented, Halberry Primary School is invented, and so are both of his schools. The letter is real output: the evidence below was handed to the cover letter builder and the reply is printed word for word.

The post, and the evidence the letter may use

An invented person. Not a real document, and not yours.

The letter the builder wrote

Direct voice, the one the door opens with. Three of the eight paragraphs are Lorcan's own sentences.

Dear Halberry Primary School Hiring Team,

I'm applying for the Teaching Assistant, 20 hours role at Halberry Primary School.

Led safeguarding reporting for the playground rota and raised 2 concerns correctly.

Delivered one to one support for 3 children with special educational needs.

Trained 2 new assistants on the phonics scheme and the reading record.

The posting asks for Safeguarding and Special Educational Needs — all of which I've worked with directly.

I'd welcome the chance to talk through any of this.

Where the hours are mentioned, and where they are not

Once, in the profile line of the evidence: working part time around a caring commitment at home. That line is in the group the letter can draw from and it was not selected, because it carries no figure and answers no requirement. The hours appear in the opening sentence only because they are part of the role title. The rest of the letter is about the work, which is the right proportion.

Lines 8, 7 and 9 were selected. The safeguarding line and the special educational needs line each matched a requirement the posting names. The training line went in on its figures. Two requirements were recognised in the whole advertisement, and classroom support, phonics and lunchtime cover were invisible to the matcher.

What it refused to claim

No gaps came back, which here means both recognised requirements were evidenced. It does not mean the application answers the whole person specification: the phonics line is in the evidence and never became a match, because the matcher does not hold phonics as a skill. Read the advertisement yourself and make sure the evidence list answers what the machine cannot see. The honest limits of every tool covers the distinction.

The guarantee that always holds is the other one: nothing in the letter claims anything his own lines do not say. No language model is involved at any point.

What a part time letter has to prove

The same things a full time one proves, at the same level of detail. A class of 28, phonics groups of 6, one to one support for 3 children, 2 concerns raised correctly. Nobody reading that is thinking about the hours.

State the reason once, plainly, in a clause, and then let it go. The product has a field for anything only you can say, and it is used exactly as written. Care work and unpaid experience covers the surrounding history.

The same evidence in the other two voices

Three voices ship with the builder, and changing one rewrites the connectors rather than the evidence. The ranking never sees the voice, so the same lines are selected in the same order in all three. Run on this page's own evidence, the warm voice opens "I'd like to be considered for the Teaching Assistant, 20 hours role at Halberry Primary School." and closes "I'd be glad to walk through any of this with you." The formal voice opens "I am writing to apply for the position of Teaching Assistant, 20 hours at Halberry Primary School." and closes "I would welcome the opportunity to discuss my application further." The middle connector changes with it: warm writes "You mention Safeguarding and Special Educational Needs; those have been the centre of my recent work." and formal writes "The role calls for Safeguarding and Special Educational Needs, each of which I have applied in practice." In the product, switching voice keeps the draft you already have as a version before it writes the new one, so nothing is lost by trying the other two.

The design, and what the door does

The same Details step on a 390 pixel phone screen, showing the role, the company and the posting loaded from the example — The same door on a phone. The role, the company and the posting arrive filled in, and the evidence groups sit below them.

Correspondence sets sender and recipient in a grid, which suits a school application pack. The paper changes and the words do not, across all 12 designs in the gallery.

The door below opens 02 · Details with the role, the school, the posting and the four evidence groups loaded and removable. Nothing is composed until you press Write the letter. Put your own classes and groups in, paste the real advertisement, and the same ranking runs on your lines. The teaching assistant résumé example holds the document those lines come from.
