Being part of a group or committee organising a Prom is not easy.  A few tips for you here:-

Don’t worry, it’ll get easier. Most schools make an announcement in assembly calling for volunteers to be on the prom committee. Great; there’s loads of excitement and lots of interest. Then the first meeting happens, and tonnes of people turn up with loads of ideas and it is chaotic!

There’s a real difference between the people who will turn up at the first meeting and the people who will be at the last meeting: commitment. Not everyone at the volunteers meeting will understand how much work is involved, or that it’s not all fun ideas and putting up balloons. The thing is, you won’t know who the really great committee members are at this point. So how do you deal with a room of excited people all wanting to contribute?

Ask for a show of hands for particular tasks/roles

Once you have a smaller group of committed volunteers, there are three critical decisions you need to make:

• Do you have a formal Prom committee with defined roles?
• What is the date of the Prom?
• What is the Prom theme?
