The Berkshire-based prep school educates children up to the age of 13 (Year 8), meaning George will have two years before moving on to his school. next school.
While the palace has not confirmed its next school location, Majesty Magazine editor-in-chief Ingrid Seward says there is a “very likely” next school for Prince George.
Speaking to Fabulous, she stated: “They [William and Kate] they will have their choice of schools and they can see as many schools as they want, and they don’t actually have to make a choice as early as anyone else would. So they have that advantage.
“They looked at Eton.
“She [Kate] you probably don’t want him to go to boarding school, and it’s possible he won’t.
“But I mean, that’s what makes Eton seem very likely, because it’s very close to where they live.”
ETON ADVANTAGE
The prestigious Eton College – whose alumni include Eddie Redmayne, George Orwell and Boris Johnson – is located just a seven-minute drive from the Window family home, Adelaide Cottage.
Both Prince William and his brother Prince Harry attended Eton College, which costs £15,432 per term, breaking royal tradition because the royals had previously attended Gordonstoun in northeast Scotland.
Ingrid said there is an important reason why Eton would be an advantage for William and Kate.
She explained: “Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte will still be at their current school, and when and if George gets into Eton, which of course he will, he will be close to them.
“Now all of this makes a huge difference because the royals are now under close scrutiny as to how much they cost the taxpayer.
“Security, which is very expensive and which we pay for, for these members of the Royal Family when they are at school, is the reason why Charlotte, Louis and George are all at the same school at the moment.
“If George went to Eton, it would be quite possible to use the same safety net to look after him.”
GEORGE PREPARATION
Ingrid stated that when it comes to the royal family “the world is their oyster in schools” and “no school will refuse to welcome them”.

However, there is still some preparation that Prince George will do if Eton is his first choice.
The royal expert explained: “They have to take an exam to enter and pass some exams.
“I think they do an entrance exam before they get in, and if they pass the Eton entrance exam, they’ll probably have to go through the rigors of interviews and things.”
Prince William’s “pleasant” moments at Eton
PRINCE William’s education began in London when he went to Jane Mynors’ nursery school and then went on to pre-prep Wetherby School.
He then went to Ludgrove School in Wokingham, Berkshire and had Rory Stewart tutor him.
He went on to take an entrance exam to study at Eton College, a famous school among the royal family.
When he went to Eton, he got his A levels in geography, A, biology, C, and art history, B.
Royal expert Ingrid Seward said: “William had a good experience. He enjoyed it.
“He made a lot of friends there, and of course a lot of his friends were from his previous school.”
His love of sports continued specifically in water polo and he was also captain of the swim team and football team.
He then took a year’s sabbatical to take part in British Army exercises before returning to the UK from Belize.
Upon returning, he attended the University of St Andrews in Fife, Scotland.
OTHER OPTIONS FOR GEORGE
The Prince and Princess of Wales have been spotted touring Kate’s former private co-educational school in Wiltshire, Marlborough College, twice in two months, leading to speculation that they could be sending Prince George there rather than Eton .
Kate is said to have enjoyed her time at the co-educational school, attended by the likes of Samantha Cameron and Jack Whitehall.
Ingrid added: “Eton isn’t one hundred per cent – it could well be Kate’s old school, Marlborough, and it could be any number of good schools.
“It depends exactly what kind of child George is and what would suit him.
“I mean, he strikes us as being quite shy, and not as bold as her sister, who seems to be so confident, and Louis seems to be very confident.

“George seems to be a little more reticent, so they might think Eton isn’t right for him.”
The royal couple are also said to have visited the elite £47,000-a-year St Edward’s School, also known as “Teddies” – which counts Oppenheimer actress Florence Pugh as a former pupil.
Another favorite is said to be Oundle School in north Northamptonshire, The Sunday Mail reported.
The independent mixed establishment, founded in 1556, costs between £22,350 and £45,435 a year.

UNITED DECISION
Despite reports that William and Kate were at odds over George’s affair future education, Ingrid insists that they will be a united front.
She added: “I’m sure Kate and William are working completely in unison.
“I think what they want to do is if their kids are coming on board, they want to keep them around, and that makes perfect sense.
“They are a family unit and that makes everything easier for everyone involved.”
