Prince George says goodbye to his parents, saying he has a life away from home.

Prince George, aged 13, has taken a significant step toward independence by enrolling at the prestigious Eton College, a boys' boarding school known for its strict traditions and demanding academic program. On his first day, he was accompanied by his parents, Prince William and Princess Kate, who arrived despite rainy weather. At the school, George met the headmaster, Simon Henderson, and deputy head, Sir Nicholas Coleridge, who welcomed him. The move marks a major change in George's education, as he will spend most of his school days away from his family, including his sister Charlotte and brother Louis. This decision follows in the footsteps of his father, William, and his uncle, Prince Harry, both of whom attended Eton. However, George’s experience will differ from his father’s due to increased privacy measures and stricter rules regarding mobile phones for younger students, especially considering George’s future role as king. While William had positive memories of his time at Eton, Kate reportedly had reservations about sending their eldest son to an all-male school, with alternative options like Marlborough College and Oundle School previously considered.

The future king is off to a new school: Prince George has started his schooling at Eton today, arriving accompanied by Kate and William

Prince George, the future king of the United Kingdom, has begun his education at the prestigious Eton College, marking a significant step in his coming-of-age journey. Accompanied by his parents, Prince William and Princess Kate, George arrived at the school on September 8, where he was greeted by the headmaster and other officials. The event was captured in official photographs showing George in his Eton uniform. Prior to this, George attended Lambrook School alongside his younger siblings, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, but now he starts his schooling separately from them. Eton, which both William and Harry previously attended, has a strong connection to the royal family. As an independent boarding school, Eton represents a new chapter for George, though its proximity to Windsor allows him to remain close to his family.
