At Hatherley Infant School we use our own and others’ experiences to allocate funding to activities that are most likely to have an impact on improving achievement. Through the use of Pupil Premium we strive to close the achievement gap between those children who qualify and their peers. Our aim is also to ensure that these children fulfil their potential regardless of the gap and that all our children in school make the necessary outstanding progress. 

Pupil Premium funding allocated to the school is based on the number of pupils who have been eligible for Free School meals in the last 6 years, or who are looked after by the Local Authority.
