Incident Overview
A student pilot, on his second solo flight with a total of 39 flight hours, made two landing attempts. The first touchdown occurred nose-gear-first, after which the pilot initiated a go-around. The nose gear appeared bent following this initial contact. On the second landing attempt, the nose gear again struck the runway first, causing it to collapse.
Background

The training school involved subsequently recommended that first-time solo students undergo a pre-solo check ride to provide an additional overview of their proficiency.
Aftermath
The aircraft sustained damage to its nose gear due to the collapse. No further details regarding the extent of damage or other outcomes were provided in the source.
