With their exams behind them, the Sidmouth College leavers arrived in style and enjoyed a well-deserved meal and dance at their prom, held at Woodbury Park Hotel on Wednesday.

The finely-dressed Year 11s, who arrived in everything from stretched Limos to Chevrolets and sports cars, had a lovely time celebrating the end of their GCSE exams.

Sidmouth College’s co-principals Jim Ingham-Hill and Martyn Dudley wished the leavers the best of luck with their futures.

They said: “As always, the students from the college have excelled themselves in making this occasion a memorable event.
