EXCLUSIVE: As Princess Kate and Prince William make a big decision about Prince George’s next school, former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond shares her predictions with OK!
After the Christmas festivities, it’s back to school for the Royal children – Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Even being a Royal doesn’t exempt you from this, and the trio are all set to return after a jolly Christmas break.
For 11-year-old George, it’s his penultimate year, and he’s likely completed most (if not all) of his entrance exams for his next school. It’s a massive shift for 11-year-old George and his parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton. George will remain at his current school until he turns 13, then it’s time for the next big step. While it’s still under wraps where he’ll be heading next, former BBC Royal Correspondent Jennie Bond has her hunches about where the young Prince might be headed, as well as his younger siblings.
Speaking exclusively ely to OK! Jennie revealed: “A big year for George….I imagine the decision about where he goes next has been pretty much sealed by now. I might take a punt on Wellington College.” However, it’s not only George Jennie predicts will join the establishment. As it’s a co-educational school, Jennie thinks Louis and even Charlotte will join when the time comes.
“It’s only half an hour from Windsor; the pupils can board (full-time or weekly) or be day students. And..a huge plus….it’s co-educational, which means all three could go there in the future. Sounds ideal to me!” At present, all three children are studying at Lambrook School The prep school caters to children from ages three to 13 up until they reach year eight.
