The education of a royal: What lies ahead for Prince George and Princess Charlotte

For generations, members of the royal family were educated at the palace but that changed with Prince William and Prince Harry
PUBLISHED AUG 27, 2018

Last summer, when Prince Philip retired at the ripe old age of 96, he made one thing absolutely clear: the life of a royal is not easy and requires a multitude of skills. Just like most kids in the UK, the royal children start their education at the age of two-and-a-half.

However, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, who are heirs to the British throne, tend to receive some very specific extracurricular instructions along with their regular education. Here is a look at what Prince George and Princess Charlotte have in store for them.
