Royal Relocation: Cambridge Kids Set for New School Adventure
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are making a significant change in their family life.
They're moving to Adelaide Cottage, nestled within the Queen's Windsor Estate.
This transition means their three children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—will be enrolling at a new school this September.
The chosen institution is Lambrook, a private school known for its quality education.
As the children embark on this new chapter, it's interesting to note how tuition fees vary based on age.
This means that each child will have a different financial impact on the family's budget as they progress through their school years.
Prince Louis, the youngest, is set to start reception this fall.
His tuition fee is £4,389 per term, which adds up to £13,167 for the entire academic year.
This fee structure remains stable until he reaches Year 3, when costs begin to rise.
For Princess Charlotte, who will be in Years 3 and 4, the tuition increases to £6,448 per term.
This brings her annual education cost to £19,344.
So, while Louis has the lowest fees, Charlotte's schooling will be a bit pricier as she advances in her studies.
Now, when it comes to Prince George, he will face the highest fees of the trio.
Enrolled in Years 5 through 8, his tuition will be £6,999 per term.
That means his total annual cost will be around £20,997.
The financial differences among the siblings reflect the school's tiered pricing system, which increases as students move up in grade levels.
As the children prepare for their first day at Lambrook, their mother, Duchess Kate, can offer them some comfort.
She has personal experience with changing schools herself.
