Royal Shake-Up: Prince George’s Education Path Takes a Surprising Turn

The education trajectory of Prince George, the potential future King of the UK, is raising eyebrows as Princess Kate and consider breaking a significant royal tradition.

The spotlight is on the prestigious Eton College, known for shaping the careers of royals and prominent figures, including Prime Ministers.

Eton College, situated in Windsor, has been a historical choice for the elite, with himself being an alum from 1995.

However, whispers suggest that Prince George might not be following his father's footsteps to Eton.

Instead, there are murmurs that he could attend Marlborough College, a deviation that could mark a break from tradition for the royal family.

The speculation surrounding Prince George's educational path intensified as Princess Kate visited Marlborough College, a £47,000-a-year co-educational institution in Wiltshire, for the second time in recent months.

Accompanying her on this visit was not only her husband, Prince William, but also their 10-year-old son, George, hinting at a potential shift in the young prince's schooling environment.

Reports indicate that Princess Kate's preference leans towards Marlborough College due to her own negative experiences with single-s– schools like Eton.

Allegedly, her time at Downhouse, an all-girls boarding school in Berkshire, was marred by bullying, contrasting with her positive academic and sports achievements at Marlborough, where she excelled in hockey and tennis.

The decision to potentially enroll Prince George at Marlborough College would align him with a roster of distinguished alumni, including , Lady Samantha Cameron, and comedian Jack Whitehall.

Founded in 1843, the institution boasts a rich history of nurturing talents across various fields, setting a promising stage for the young prince's academic journey.

In a recent revelation, Kate shared that she has been actively involved in preparing George for his educational endeavors, highlighting his early exposure to academic challenges.

During a visit to a secondary school in Cardiff, she mentioned George's sentiments about feeling constantly tested, shedding light on the supportive role she plays in his educational development.

A notable absence from Prince William's Earthshot Prize ceremony in Singapore last month was Princess Kate, who chose to prioritize supporting George during his exams.

This gesture underscores the significance the royal family places on the education and well-being of the young prince, emphasizing a hands-on approach to his formative years.
