Expecting teen Mum requesting laptop to continue her studies and complete high school education via eSchool

Expecting teen Mum is wanting to continue with and complete her high school education. She has enrolled and been accepted to eSchool, as this will be a better option for her and her child when it arrives. She is currently unable to start her study until she has access to a laptop.

Due to her age she does not yet have a driver's licence and lives in a rural area which has very limited public transport. She is entitled to limited payments from Centrelink due to her age and the fact that she has not yet given birth to her baby, she is also not currently eligible for any family payments.

Young Mum wants to be a great role model to her child and is proud that her child will be able to witness her continuing with her education and bettering her life. She hopes that it provides encouragement for her child to also obtain a high level of education in the future and understand the importance of resilience and determination, even when faced with unexpected challenges.
