SPOTTED!! Prince George’s NEW SCHOOL Has Finally Decided and It Breaks Royal Tradition
The British royal children’s education has always been subject to long-standing traditions and expectations, but Prince William and Princess Catherine have shown that they are willing to break from these conventions when it comes to their children’s schooling. The latest news reveals that the Princess of Wales has been touring exclusive private schools in London as part of the search for the next school for her eldest son, Prince George, following her successful cancer treatment and remission.
Prince George, who was born on July 22, 2013, will need to transition to a new school after July 2026 when he is of secondary school age. This has prompted significant speculation about which school will become his next educational home. The royal couple has already broken tradition by choosing a co-educational primary school for their children, which is in contrast to the all-boys and all-girls schools typically preferred for royal children.
The Princess of Wales was recently seen touring two prestigious independent schools in London: University College School (UCS) in Hampstead and Highgate School. UCS is known for its bold academic approach, world-class facilities, and talented teachers, and could be a possible option for Prince George to join their senior school. Meanwhile, Highgate School, one of the UK’s leading co-educational schools, boasts an impressive academic record, with a 78% pass rate at A-levels in 2024.
It is reported that the couple has been engaged in lengthy discussions over where Prince George will go to secondary school, with both parents keen to explore various options. The Princess of Wales is said to wish for all three of her children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—to attend the same school, which has led to further considerations. Marlborough College, a prestigious co-educational boarding school, has emerged as a potential choice, with rumors suggesting that Prince George has already been offered a place and a house there.
The couple has also considered other options, including Eaton College, the prestigious boarding school previously attended by Prince William and Prince Harry. However, the royal family has historically preferred schools like Gordonstoun, where King Charles, Prince Andrew, and Prince Edward all studied, as it offered greater privacy away from the public eye compared to schools in London.
In addition to these options, Prince William and Catherine have also toured Andover School, with some sources noting concerns about the “flashiness” of Catherine’s alma mater, where the culture has evolved into a more jet-setting, high-profile environment.
Ultimately, the decision about Prince George’s schooling remains under wraps, and many are eagerly awaiting an official announcement from the Prince and Princess of Wales. This decision will likely carry significant implications not only for George’s future but also for how the royal couple continues to navigate their family’s public and private lives.
As for Prince George and Princess Charlotte, they first attended Thomas’s Battersea in London before the family relocated to Windsor. Tuition fees for this school range from £4,400 for younger years to £6,400 for years 3 onwards. The royal couple’s ongoing efforts to provide their children with a modern and well-rounded education continue to spark public interest, as they balance tradition and personal preference in a new era for the British monarchy.
