Little-known reason Prince George won’t be starting secondary school in September like most kids his age

It's still undecided which secondary school Prince George will attend, though there are some likely choices

Being a future king can mean your live looks a bit different, and for Prince George that means even your education and school day aren't the usual.

Prince George, who is in line for the throne after his father Prince William, has just turned 11 years old and would be attending secondary school in September - if he was following other children his age.

Yet for the young Prince, his education doesn't quite work like that.

Prince George currently attends the prestigious Lambrook school, where's been since September 2022.

The prestigious school is fit for a royal with a golf course, swimming pool, theatre and sports centre. It also houses art studios and educates students in tap dancing, bagpipe playing and swimming.

The school, based in Berkshire, is also attended by his younger siblings Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte.

The school takes on pupils from age 3 until age 13, meaning Prince George still has two more years at the school before moving onto another school.

Where Prince George will study next is still undecided.

His father, his uncle Prince Harry and his grandfather King Charles have all previously attended Eton.

However Prince George is also likely to attend Oundle School in Northamptonshire for his secondary education, which is one of Britain's leading co-educational boarding and day schools.

If George attended the school, it would be the first time a male heir has attended a co-educational school.

Oundle School costs a whopping £34,000-a-year, and dates back to 1556. The website for the prestigious school reads: "We have a responsibility to ensure that every single member of the school community takes both individual and collective action towards environmental sustainability.

"We encourage aspiration and abhor arrogance, nurturing open minds, authentic self-belief and a sense of service.

"We believe that boarding offers the best environment within which to realise these educational ambitions, with day pupils involved fully in the breadth offered by such an education."

Yet the future for Prince George is still undecided, and it's been said that his mother Kate Middleton has expressed a wish for him to attend Marlborough College where she and her siblings attended.

However a source told The Mirror that the school has seen become quite 'flashy' since she attended, leading to concerns about sending Prince George there.

The source said: "The 2024 version of Marlborough may be quite different from how Kate remembers it. It's become a little more jet-set.

"Lots of parents have villas in Ibiza, chalets in Verbier or a private jet, which isn't Kate's style. She prefers understated wealth."
