delivered to their WhatsApp.

The notices that never arrive

Printed circulars disappear into school bags and never reach home.

Half the parents miss PTA meetings because the reminder went out the night before — or never.

A schedule change means the front office calls parents one by one.

The school’s one "class group chat" is so noisy that important notices scroll away in minutes.

What MsgOrb does for schools

Real workflows, running today — not a feature wish-list.

Event & term reminders

Open days, exams, mid-term breaks, graduation — schedule every notice at the start of term and let them go out on time all term long.

PTA meetings with confirmed numbers

Parents reply CONFIRM to reserve a slot. You see exactly who is coming before you set out the chairs.

Schedule changes in seconds

Closing early? Event moved? One message reaches every parent directly — no phone chains, no "I wasn’t told."

Separate audiences, separate groups

Primary parents, JHS parents, staff — each group gets only what concerns them.

Up and running in three steps

1

Create groups per class or level

Import parents once, or share a join link at registration and let them add themselves.

2

Schedule the term’s notices

Pick a template, set the dates — or make key reminders repeat weekly or monthly.

3

Track delivery

See what was delivered and read, so "I didn’t receive it" has an answer.

The parent communication channel that actually gets read

Every school knows the cycle: a circular is printed, tucked into two hundred school bags, and reaches perhaps half the homes it was meant for. The email version lands in Promotions. The class group chat buries it under fifty other messages by dinnertime. School-to-parent communication fails not because schools don’t send notices, but because the channels don’t deliver them.

WhatsApp is different — it is the app parents open first, and a message from the school’s own WhatsApp Business number gets seen. MsgOrb sends each parent a personal notice, tracks whether it was delivered and read, and collects replies in one inbox. No parent app to install, no password to forget, no notice left in a school bag.

One system for the whole school year

Plan the term once and let it run: open days, exam timetables, mid-term breaks, PTA meetings, graduation. Each notice is scheduled ahead and delivered on the right day to the right group — primary parents, JHS parents, staff — without the front office touching it again.

When plans change, one message reaches every affected parent in seconds. And because parents can reply CONFIRM to reserve PTA slots or ask questions in the 24-hour conversation window, communication becomes two-way — with real numbers for every meeting instead of guesses.

Common questions

MsgOrb runs on the official WhatsApp Business Platform — see the full FAQ for more.

Do parents have to join a group chat?

No. Messages are sent to each parent individually — no noisy group chat, no parents seeing each other’s numbers.

Can different staff manage different classes?

Yes. Sub-admin access lets each coordinator manage their own groups while the head keeps oversight.

What if a parent changes their number?

Update the member record once and every future notice goes to the new number.

Is this allowed on WhatsApp?

Yes — MsgOrb uses the official WhatsApp Business API with Meta-approved message templates, and honours opt-outs automatically.

Can we see who actually read a notice?

Yes. Every message shows its delivery status — sent, delivered, read — so the office knows exactly which parents received a notice and can follow up with the few who didn’t.

How long does setup take?

Most schools are running the same day: connect your WhatsApp Business account, import your parent list or share the join link, and schedule your first notice — typically under an hour end to end.
