Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has signed a government decree granting free internet to secondary school students taking part in digital education.
Last Tuesday, Hungarian schools above eighth grade switched to digital education as part of a series of restrictions that heightened efforts to protect against coronavirus in the country.
In a video message on Saturday, Orbán said the decree guaranteed these students free internet access for the next 30 days.
Those who study in digital education and therefore use the internet for this purpose will have free access for this period. This will be a matter for debate with the providers, but the priority now is that the families receive help.
He also urged students to keep studying rather than looking at digital education as a vacation.
