Availability

All schools are identified in the Chorus coverage map and publicly on the Network capability map and the schools spreadsheet.


Schools ready to connect

Our main focus in RBI is delivering fibre to rural schools, libraries, cell sites, hospitals and medical facilities. To achieve this as efficiently as possible, we've leveraged our existing network and only built new duct infrastructure to reach these priority users.

Check our list of school delivery dates to see if you’re ready to be connected:


Ordering

Once fibre has been laid to the gate, schools can order a service with a broadband provider or with Network for Learning.

Click on regions to see which providers offer services to schools. Once the order has been placed, a Chorus technician will complete a site visit to determine the best way to get fibre from the gate to the classroom. Our technician will work with your staff to prepare an install plan that works with the school’s current communications infrastructure and type of service desired.
