c. Being an orphan, her uncle Mr. Reed promised to care for her.

Explanation:

This is the reason why Jane is at Gateshall. Jane has ended up here because she is an orphan, and this means she need to be taken care of by someone who is not her mother or father. She is sent to live with her uncle Mr. Reed. The fact that Jane is an orphan is very significant in the book, as it means that Jane spends much of her life looking for a home, a family and a sense of purpose.
