Do you receive free school meals? You may apply for a free computer and free internet access!
Posted ~ Friday 15 January 2010
Home Access is a government drive which will help low-income families to get access to a computer and the internet to get online at home.
If you are a low income family in receipt of certain benefits you could qualify for a grant to buy a computer and/or a minimum of one years’ internet access. The programme is aimed at those that need it most and targets families that do not have access to a computer or the internet at home.
Depending on what you need, the grant allows eligible applicants to buy one of the following packages:
1. Full package (a computer, one year’s internet access, service and support)
2. A computer with service and support only
3. One year’s internet access only
If you are a parent and think you are eligible for a Home Access grant, click here to see how to get an application form. Or contact the school and speak with (JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) - we shall be more than happy to help you apply.
All pupils who currently receive free school meals will bring home a letter next week inviting you to apply or come into school and we’ll help you apply. Do miss out on this excellent offer which can help your child achieve as highly as possible.
