THERE was sadness among students and parents after a "promised" leavers prom was cancelled last week.

The year 11 prom for Oasis Academy Sholing students was cancelled, after students were "promised a prom in 2021".

So we've taken a look though the Daily Echo prom archives to find Oasis Academy Sholing (Sholing Technology College) prom photos throughout the years:

Last week, a letter was sent out to parents that stated the school had cancelled the prom following "advice" from Southampton City Council and Public Health England saying that they "should not hold a leavers prom".

One parent of a year 11 student at the prom told the Daily Echo: "They were promised they would have the prom even if it is arranged next year in 2021, but now Oasis Sholing have decided to cancel it."

A spokesperson from Oasis Academy Sholing said that they were now planning a "celebratory event", should government guidance allow, next year - but made no further mention of a prom. Parents are expected to receive letters regarding this soon.

They said: “In light of the current coronavirus pandemic we unfortunately had to make the difficult decision of postponing this year’s Oasis Academy Sholing Prom."
