Send school notices to parents and staff automatically

Every day, the system sends scheduled school notices to parents and staff by email and text, and tracks delivery.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs; all paths must finish before it continues; runs once per each scheduled notice.

Pattern: Parallel Split (2) · Synchronisation (3) · Multiple Instances with a priori Design-Time Knowledge (13)

The problem it solves

Getting notices out to every parent, student, and staff member on time means manually sending emails and messages one by one, then trying to keep track of who actually got them. Something important always slips through.

Who it fits

Schools or training programs that need to keep parents, students, and staff reliably informed.

How it works

Each day, the system checks for notices scheduled to go out
It validates the notice details and prepares the content for each channel
Notices are sent by email and text message to the right recipients
The distribution status for each notice is updated and tracked automatically

Assumes notices are currently sent and tracked to each recipient individually rather than through an existing bulk tool, and that freed hours go to other work.

What you get

Delivered notices to every recipient, with an up-to-date record of what was sent.

What you need

An email account (like Gmail or Outlook), a business texting service, and a Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets spreadsheet.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
