School Student Broadband Initiative
School Student Broadband Initiative
The Australian Government is providing up to 30,000 unconnected families with school-aged children across all states and territories with a free nbn connection for 12 months.The initiative will provide fixed-line, Fixed-Wireless Plus and Sky Muster Plus services, depending on where the family lives, with large or unlimited data quotas. The SSBI is an affordability measure to narrow the digital divide and boost education opportunities for students without access to home internet.
To be eligible, a family must:have a child living at home that is enrolled in an Australian school in 2023 and have no active NBN service. Having a mobile internet service does not affect eligibility.
It is important that consent is obtained from the family to provide their personal information to nbn, including full names, address and contact details.
If you are, or know of a family that would benefit from this initiative or if you have any questions, please let us know at school and we will make the appropriate contact to have you nominated.
Please note: It is important that consent is obtained from the family to provide their personal information to nbn, including full names, address and contact details.
