Which college does Kate Middleton want to send Prince George to?
Kate Middleton and Prince William have not yet agreed on George's future educational establishment according to royal expert Katie Nicholl who confided to the Mirror. Indeed, the son of King Charles III would prefer that his son, who is the second heir to the throne after him, go to the same college as him. He would indeed like to see him continue at Eton College which is a single-sex boarding school. This establishment is often nicknamed “the school of the English elite”. But, Kate Middleton prefers that her son go to a mixed school as she did between 1996 and 2000.

She would, in fact, like him to study at Marlborough College in Wiltshire. “Kate prefers George to be in a mixed school, so he could be with his siblings, which Kate experienced in Marlborough with her sister Pippa and brother James”, explained the royal expert who also added: “It was a very happy school life for her, but William has very fond memories of Eton, which has a long history with aristocrats and royals”. It is therefore a very important decision that Kate Middleton will have to make very soon.

Kate Middleton and Prince William haven't always followed traditions and are always thinking about what's best for their family. “There is always the possibility that traditions will be changed”, thus confided the expert who indicated: “William and Harry did not follow in their father's footsteps by going to Gordonstoun [en Écosse]and it could be that George breaks the Eton mold and ends up elsewhere. Whatever happens, it will be a decision made by William and Kate with George's best interests in mind.”

In addition, the educational environment of the children of the Prince and Princess of Wales is particularly important to them as we have seen since the announcement of Kate's cancer. It maintains a certain stability within the family. “This feeling of normality, to keep the family alive in one of the most difficult times they have ever gone through, was important”explained Katie Nicholl who added: “The school provides them with excellent infrastructure and a great support network, and allows the children to experience a normal childhood – a low-key, happy, albeit privileged, childhood.”
