Parent's Information
Government's Home Access Programme
The Government's Home Access programme is now closed to new applications. If you have submitted your application, but not yet received your pre-paid debit card, then you should check that your application is still being processed.
Families whose children need assistive technologies because of their Special Educational Needs, and who meet the Free School Meals criteria, may be eligible for a different grant and funds for those still available.
Families who fall outside the Home Access eligibility criteria, but believe that their children’s educational prospects are suffering because of difficulties buying them a suitable computer and the Internet, should contact their school who may be willing to run an equity programme for everyone. We regret that the e-Learning Foundation cannot help individual cases.
The Home Access phone number for families to ring is
0333 200 1004. Parents who believe they are eligible for an Assistive Technologies grant can also find out more information on the official website at:
