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 National Broadband Network (NBN) connection for twelve months.
The initiative will provide 50 megabites per second (Mbps) fixed line services, Fixed Wireless plus and Sky Muster Plus services, depending on where the family lives. The School Student Broadband Initiative 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 and enrolled in an Australian school in 2023
- Have no active NBN service
If you meet the guidelines, and wish to nominate for this service, please contact Barnaby Joyce's office on 6761 3080.
