Starting school at Windsor: George's boarding school costs €70,000 a year

The article discusses the start of school for Prince George, the son of Prince William and Kate Middleton, at Eton College, a prestigious private boarding school in England. It highlights the traditional uniform required at Eton and references the historical significance of the institution within British monarchy. The piece notes that King Charles III, George’s grandfather, was the first crowned head of state to attend school rather than being educated by tutors, though he had negative memories of his time at Gordonstoun. The article mentions the high annual tuition fees at Eton, estimated at around 70,000 euros, and compares this to the costs for other royal family members. It also touches on the recent return of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to Britain, noting their children, Archie and Lilibet, are starting school but the specific institution remains undisclosed due to security concerns. Additionally, the article references a warning sent to parents at a Cotswold private school about the potential public attention surrounding new students, suggesting that Harry and Meghan may have settled in an idyllic area known for aristocratic residences.
