Prince George is presently enjoying a two-month summer vacation from school.

However, unlike his contemporaries, the young prince will not be starting secondary school in September.
The 11-year-old will continue to attend Lambrook School, where he studies alongside his younger siblings, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six.

After previously attending London primary schools — Prince George and Princess Charlotte attended Thomas’s Battersea, near the family’s Kensington Palace home in London, while Prince Louis attended Willcocks Nursery School — the royal trio enrolled at the new school after the family relocated to Windsor in 2022.

The preparatory school educates children until they reach the age of 13, after which they are transferred to another school of their parents’ choice.

George’s parents, the Prince and Princess of Wales, appear to be undecided on which secondary school to send their son to after he graduates from Lambrook in 2026.

In 2023, George was sighted visiting Eton College with his parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton.

The all-boys boarding school, which has 1,350 students and charges £17,000 per term, was attended by both Prince William and Prince Harry as teenagers and is only a short drive from the family’s Adelaide Cottage home in Windsor.

Students at Eton College range in age from 13 to 18, and they must register by June 30 of the school year in which the lad turns 10. The school’s website states: “After this, the only route of entry will be through scholarships or Sixth Form entry, which open in Year 8 (for Year 9 entry) and Year 11 (for Sixth Form entry).”

When Prince William started at Eton College in 1995, he became the school’s first senior royal student, as his father, King Charles, and grandfather, Prince Philip, all attended Gordonstoun in Scotland.

However, it has been reported that George may take a completely other path and attend his mother’s school, Marlborough College, where his brother and sister can also enroll.

Kate was claimed to have enjoyed her time at Marlborough, where her brother James Middleton and sister Pippa Matthews were also educated. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Nonetheless, there have been some concerns that Marlborough is drawing a more jet-set population and becoming ‘too flashy’ as its reputation among ultra-rich families grows, which is not Kate’s style.

The princess is believed to enjoy understated luxury and is seeking for a school that will accommodate all of her children while keeping them grounded.

She and William are claimed to choose St Edwards, also known as ‘Teddies’, a liberal boarding school in Oxford that prioritises ‘children’s pleasure’.

According to reports, Kate, 42, and Prince William, 41, visited the £47,000-a-year property this year.

The co-educational university, founded in 1863 by the Reverend Thomas Chamberlain, has an outstanding alumni list that includes Dambusters leader Guy Gibson, fellow RAF veteran Douglas Bader, actor Laurence Olivier, and Oppenheimer actress Florence Pugh.

The school’s website emphasizes its’spirit of inclusion’ and ‘ethos of collaboration’. Set amid 100 ‘beautiful’ acres in the north of Oxford, which includes a golf course and a boat house, the school’s website claims that kids are encouraged to look beyond test scores and focus on long-term life goals, with children pursuing ‘Pathways and Perspective’ courses alongside their GCSEs.

The courses encompass topics such as sustainability, design, sports science, and the classical world, and the sustainability course, with its emphasis on the environment, is sure to appeal to the Prince of Wales, who is well-known for his environmental activism.

Among ‘Teddies’ primary aims is to teach a variety of life skills, which is why students must join the Combined Cadet Force and choose between the Army, Navy, and Air Force Sections.

Teddies also prioritizes teenage mental health, a subject supported by The Prince and Princess of Wales, and holds an annual teenage in Mind conference in collaboration with Oxfordshire Mind.

The royal couple is also said to be contemplating another academic institution for their eldest kid, with the prestigious Oundle School among their top options.

Oundle School in Northamptonshire, founded in 1556 and featuring a chapel and cricket pitch, claims to shape its students into ‘decent’, ‘open-minded’, and ‘ambitious’ people – but never ‘arrogant’.

Sarah Kerr-Dineen, the headteacher who has studied at both Oxford and Cambridge, described the school’s students as ‘intellectually curious, energetic, and resourceful’.
