Some 80 GCSE students in Cheshire have been banned from attending their own prom because they haven't met "certain standards" set by the school. Parents of the Winsford Academy pupils excluded from the event were notified via email.
The end of high school prom takes place on Thursday, June 30. To be able to attend, pupils had to meet a set of school standards throughout the year ranging from 'good attendance', 'punctuality' and 'positive attitudes to learning'.
Parents of the children who are not invited to the prom have arranged an alternative prom night for the children at the Nu Flava bar in Winsford. They have clubbed together to provide a disco and buffet with balloons, goodie bags and a flower wall, reports CheshireLive.
