Prince George set for first day at Eton College

The 13-year-old heir will board full time at the elite school, which charges more than $84,000 a year and has educated 20 British prime ministers.

  • On Tuesday, Prince George arrived at Eton College for his first day, accompanied by parents Prince William and Kate to the Berkshire institution.
  • George follows his father, Prince William, and uncle, the Duke of Sussex, to Eton; William broke from royal tradition when he enrolled on September 06, 1995.
  • Prince William's umbrella turned inside out during the walk across the historic quadrangle, causing him to abandon it in the heavy downpour and prompting Prince George to giggle.
  • Tatler's education editor, Tori Cadogan, explained the Waleses will love that the college is only 15 minutes away from home, allowing them to "pop in whenever they are needed."
  • Students at Eton College are expected to wear "school dress," a traditional uniform standardized in the 1960s, while the school recently opened the Coleman indoor sports centre with eight squash courts.
