Prince George begins boarding at the 600-year-old school after his father and uncle attended there, with fees at about £65,000 a year, Reuters reported.
- On Tuesday, September 8, Prince George began his first day at Eton College, accompanied by the Prince and Princess of Wales. The 13-year-old arrived in a suit and tie, marking a significant educational milestone.
