Overview
- George, age 13, has started as a boarding pupil at Eton College this week with his parents accompanying him on the first day.
- Eton admits only boys aged 13–18, so Princess Charlotte cannot follow and the siblings are now on different school paths.
- As a boarder George will mainly stay at Eton during term time and return home on weekends and in school holidays, changing daily family logistics.
- Commentary has surfaced that King Charles might take an informal mentoring role given Eton’s proximity to Windsor, but that idea is speculation reported by commentators, not an official palace confirmation.
- Eton is a centuries‑old elite boarding school long linked to the royal family and British leaders, and William and Catherine considered several other schools before choosing Eton for George.
