SCHOOL OPERATIONS · INDIA WhatsApp Business for Schools in India A school-owned conversation for parents, operations, support, and admissions.
THE DESIGN CHOICE The design choice is whether the school does WhatsApp on purpose Parents already live on WhatsApp. The school needs an institute-owned number, clear consent, and a shared operating model. A personal group A class teacher’s personal group works until she leaves, the handset is lost, and last year’s parents are still in the chat. School-owned conversation A WhatsApp Business discussion for education is the same conversation on a number the institute owns, with a record of who opted in. 2
TOOL CHOICE App for one desk; API for blasts and a shared inbox APP App for one desk. A front desk or tuition teacher with 40 students does not need an API on day one. API API for blasts and a shared inbox. Use it when several people need to send approved messages from one place. GUARDRAILS Opt in for fees separately from admission ads. Never put one child’s marks in a group blast. India from 1 October 2026: marketing about ₹0.8631; utility and service about ₹0.115 after 1,000 free service messages per number. 3
