Internet Data for Disadvantaged Children
DfE is working in partnership with mobile network operators to help schools support disadvantaged pupils in years 3 to 11 who rely on a mobile internet connection when their face-to-face education is disrupted by coronavirus (COVID-19).
Disadvantaged families may be able to benefit from free increases to their mobile data if they’re a customer of either:
EE
Three
Sky Mobile
SMARTY
Tesco Mobile
Virgin Mobile
More providers may join the scheme soon.
The amount of data available to families will vary by provider. Data will be increased until the end of July 2021.
If you think you are eligible for the free data offer please complete this form so we can apply on your behalf.
