Hi everyone, I had sent a few other updates to the list regarding free RHEL programs and so I thought I would make sure to link to this one announced today. For those of you in academic or research institutions, this is the announcement you've been looking for. Generally, this program has been in place for some time but you had to know who to reach out to for discussion.
For those who are interested, give it a read.

It's unclear to me *what* academic institutions qualify now. Would, for example, primary and secondary schools, co-op schools, etc. qualify for being able to use it at no-cost for PCs used by students for labs and such?

K-12 primary/secondary schools are considered qualified academic institutions and I would expect them to be included in this program. What I don't know is whether or not they would be part of the previously available low-cost option or a free option. I assume that's for the redhat-academic@ email address to decide.
Academic Edition Subscriptions would include faculty, staff, and students for general use (classrooms, personal, etc) according to Appendix 1 "Academic Edition Subscriptions" - https://www.redhat.com/en/about/agreements (See Appendix 1 under "Product Appendices").

It depends and we need to talk to the school system in question. Depending on where they are in the world and how they are established they may actually fall into some other programs.

I know in Ireland all schools are designated as registered charities, that approach gives a lot of flexibility for donations and so on. I'm unsure if charity designation falls into the current free RHEL programs but that could be another avenue if it does.
