Education & training

WhatsApp API for schools, academies and training institutes

Admissions season means hundreds of parents and students asking the same things. Answer them instantly, capture each enquiry in a pipeline, and keep enrolled students informed with announcements.

How the WhatsApp API helps schools, academies and institutes

Parents and students already message you on WhatsApp: "what's the fee for O Levels?", "is there a weekend batch?", "when do admissions close?". The WhatsApp API for education lets a school, tuition academy, coaching centre or training institute answer those on one official number, with several admin staff sharing the inbox, a pipeline for admissions and announcements that students can reply to.

ReploChat runs on the official WhatsApp Business Platform, so you can message many students without the limits and risks of personal numbers and broadcast lists.

The playbook

WhatsApp for education business: admissions to alumni

Admission enquiries

The Admission enquiry form collects the student's name, class or programme and a parent's contact in one step.

Demo classes

Demo class booking requests arrive with the subject and preferred time; your coordinator confirms the slot in the chat.

AI answers on fees and timings

The AI assistant replies from your profile: courses, fees, batch timings, campus address, admission dates.

Admissions pipeline

Move each enquiry through Enquiry, Demo attended, Test, Fee pending and Enrolled on the CRM pipeline.

Announcements

Send exam schedules, holidays and fee reminders to a batch label as a campaign, with read status per student.

Course feedback

The Course feedback form gathers ratings at the end of a term or workshop.

AoA, what is the fee for the MDCAT prep course and when does it start?
Walaikum Assalam! The MDCAT preparation course runs for 12 weeks. The fee is PKR 35,000, payable in two instalments, and the next batch starts on 3 November. Would you like to attend a free demo class first?
Yes please
Please fill in this short form and our coordinator will confirm your slot.

WhatsApp chatbot for education

Answer at midnight, enrol in the morning

Students research courses late at night. The AI assistant answers from the business profile you wrote, offers the Demo class booking form, and your coordinator follows up during office hours. If the AI isn't sure, it hands the chat to a person instead of guessing.

Want a fixed menu instead? Build one in the chatbot builder with a list of programmes, a question for the student's current class, and a hand-off to the right counsellor.

Follow up with undecided parents

Many families enquire at several schools at once. Add the label "Enquired" after the first conversation and let a follow-up sequence send approved templates over the next days, for example the admission deadline, then an invitation to an open day. The sequence stops automatically when the parent replies, so nobody gets a reminder after they've already answered.

Hi Mrs. Khan, a quick reminder that admissions for Grade 6 close on 15 November. Reply here if you'd like to book a campus visit or have any questions.

Announcements students can answer

A campaign sends each student an individual message, so replies such as "I'll miss Monday's test" come back to the shared inbox rather than into a group chat. Opted-out contacts are skipped, and you can schedule a campaign ahead of time. Yearly items such as a membership or course renewal can use date reminders from a date field on the contact.

Setup checklist

  1. Connect your institute's number and fill the business profile with courses, fees, timings and admission dates.
  2. Publish the Admission enquiry and Demo class booking forms with keywords.
  3. Create pipeline stages for admissions and labels for each batch.
  4. Get an announcement template and a follow-up template approved.
  5. Turn on the AI assistant after testing it with real parent questions.

Fees are paid outside WhatsApp; ReploChat does not collect payments. Start a free trial before your next admissions season.
