Emblematic of the end of the school year, prom is all about getting dressed up, spending an evening with friends, and celebrating the onset of summer. And - as demonstrated by one reader saying: “I loved my prom!” - what could be better than all those things?
What’s more, there aren’t many more nerve-wracking times in a young student’s life than results day, so here we decided to combine both events and take a look at some of our best archive pictures of Preston proms and results days from the early 2010s.
See if you recognise any familiar sights or faces...
