Prince George is growing up.
The young prince, the son of Prince William and Kate Middleton, is already 11 years old. He won’t be able to continue attending his current school for long.
According to a source who talked with The Mirror, George’s parents have been considering where their oldest child should attend school once he finishes elementary school. His parents disagree, and William’s offer reportedly makes Kate “heartbroken.”
According to the BBC, Lambrook, the primary school George attends alongside his younger siblings, 9-year-old Princess Charlotte and 6-year-old Prince Louise, is co-educational and serves students aged 3 to 13.
Where is George going to school next? According to the individual who talked with The Mirror, “Kate’s preference is for George to be at a co-education school, so he can be with his siblings, which is what Kate experienced at Marlborough with her sister, Pippa, and brother, James.”
The insider stated that Kate prefers this since “it was a very happy school life for her.”
William had a different style of school life, which influenced his preferences. William attended Eton, an all-boys boarding school. The source shared, “William has very fond memories of Eton, which has a long history with aristocrats and members of the royal family.”
William wants George to attend Eton, and George is allegedly enthusiastic at the prospect of attending the same institution as his father.
Kate is described as “heartbroken” by the prospect of George attending Eton. She believes the school is overly “stuffy.”
While William and Kate appear to have radically different opinions about where George should attend school, there may be another possibility.
According to the source, “There’s always the possibility of traditions being changed.”
According to the source, King Charles III attended a different boarding school than his sons, therefore William may send his son to a different school than he did.
The source continued: “William and Harry didn’t end up following in their father’s footsteps by going to Gordonstoun [in Scotland], and it may be that George breaks the Eton mould and ends up somewhere else. “Whatever happens, it’ll be a decision made by William and Kate with George’s best interests factored in.”
Where do you think George will end up attending school?
