Have you heard that the Australian Government has implemented a new School Student Broadband Initiative which can support families and their child’s education with free home internet?
This Australian Government program for families and carers with school age children who are struggling with bills, can apply until 31 December 2024, and eligible households will receive free home internet until 31 December 2025.
If applicant family qualifies, their free home internet service will begin as soon as they are connected by your chosen participating internet provider.
To qualify families must:
- Have a school age student at home (full or part time) enrolled in an Australian school (up to year 12 including Prep in Qld/Vic/Tas, Kindergarten in NSW, Reception in SA, Transition in NT/ACT and Pre-Primary in WA).
- Not have an active nbn® network internet service at your current residential address now or in the past 14 days. (Having a mobile internet service does not affect eligibility).
- Live in a premise that can access the nbn network through a standard connection
