PUPILS got a taste of the American way when they marked the end of a school era with a prom night.
The year 11 group from Branksome Comprehensive School, in Darlington, enjoyed a night of glamour at the Blackwell Grange Hotel.
Some turned up in limousines for a disco and buffet night. Seventy-five pupils and 20 members of staff attended the event.
Headteacher Pam Scott said: "They have finished their exams and the event was to celebrate them moving on to pastures new, be it employment or further education."
