Respected Sir
I would like to inform you that though I have been promoted from Middle School to High School where I teach Mathematics for grades 9 and 10,the basic pay I have received for the month of April is that the school offers to the middle school teachers

I have put in my most sincere efforts in the best interest of the students and the institution ever since I joined this institution in March 2012.

Please consider my situation and increase my basic salary to the scale eligible for High School teachers.

Thank you for your kind consideration

Yours sincerely
