School proms have been taking place across Bournemouth, Christchurch, Poole and beyond over the past few weeks.

Glittering gowns, dapper suits and big smiles have been on show at end of year celebrations which have taken place in hotels, stadiums and venues.

Students in years 11 and 13 have marked the end of their GCSE and A Levels in style.

Some of the most memorable entrances have included double decker buses, classic cars, motorbikes and horses.

The Daily Echo has been there to capture the glamour and fun of the school proms which are a joy for students, parents and teachers alike.

Hundreds of pictures have been taken during prom season and a picture supplement will be appearing in the Daily Echo on Wednesday, July, 20.

The 24-page special will feature a selection of images captured over the past few weeks.
