At HLC, our aim is to eradicate educational disadvantaged by ‘levelling the playing field’ for disadvantaged pupils so they have the same opportunities, experiences, support and aspirations as their non-disadvantaged peers, to enable each of them to pursue a successful future. Our HLC strategy is underpinned by the following: 

1. Attainment gap of PP students is closed.  
2. PP students’ lives are enriched.
3. PP students’ attendance is in line with non-PP attendance. 
4. PP behaviour data is in line with non-PP data.
