Hey!!
Im currently a student applying for part time roles as well. A cover letter is optional, however for your CV you dont really have to specify that you are looking for a part time role as the employer will know from their job description of it being a part time role (if that makes sense). I found my CV format on Google Docs however there are many examples on youtube you can use for inspiration.
