“One of the most important nights in a teenager’s life”

In the UK the School Prom was unheard of until the late 1990s. It was believed to start in Cambridge where every school in the area had a special "School ball". As the idea proliferated throughout the UK from 2000, the name changed to a “School Prom”.

The School Prom is a semi-formal (black tie) dance held at the end of an academic year. It is now one of the most important nights in a teenager’s life. It is a night when they celebrate finishing school and moving onto work or university. It is a night that has been organized and looked forward to all year long. Everyone dresses up and arrives in a limo.

Boys usually dress in black tie (a dinner jacket and bow tie), sometimes with brightly colored cummerbunds or vests, though any sort of formal wear can be worn. Girls traditionally wear formal gowns or dresses adorned with a corsage given to them by their dates.

While smaller schools may hold a school prom open to the entire student body, large schools may hold two proms, a year 11 prom for those finishing Year 11 and a senior prom for those who are finishing Year 13. Recently, Junior Schools have started to hold leaver balls for their students at year 7 increasingly these are being called the Junior Prom.
