Prince George, the eldest child of Prince William and Princess Catherine, is approaching an important turning point as he prepares to begin secondary school in September 2026. The future king currently attends Lambrook School alongside his younger siblings, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. But with George set to turn 13 this summer, a new phase of both education and responsibility is drawing closer.
While no official announcement has been made about where he will attend next, speculation has been growing. Prestigious schools such as Eton College and Marlborough College are widely believed to be under consideration, both carrying strong personal ties to the Wales family.
Why the move could be harder than it was for William
As George prepares for this transition, royal commentators have drawn comparisons with Prince William’s own move to secondary school. William began his education at Eton College at the same age, but under very different family circumstances.
