Prince William, Princess Kate finally decide on George's next chapter
The Prince and Princess of Wales have reportedly come to an agreement about their eldest son after months
Prince George may be heading to the same elite boarding school that shaped his father the Prince of Wales.
After months of school visits and speculation, Prince William and Princess Kate have quietly settled on Eton College as the future school for their eldest son, according to the Daily Mail.
“All roads lead to Eton,” a source told the outlet.
11-year-old George would begin his new academic chapter in September 2026.
Currently enrolled at Lambrook School in Berkshire alongside siblings Charlotte, 10, and Louis, 7, the young heir would follow in Prince William’s footsteps by attending the all-boys institution just across the river from Windsor Castle.
While Marlborough College — Kate’s alma mater — was also in the running, Eton’s proximity to the family’s home reportedly sealed the deal.
The choice may disappoint royal watchers who had speculated otherwise after the Princess of Wales’ lengthy post-Christmas tour of Highgate School in London. There, she reportedly asked teachers about the drama curriculum and “opportunities there might be for appearing in school plays.”
While the Palace has yet to confirm the move, the £63,000-a-year school appears to be preparing for the arrival of its most high-profile pupil yet.
