Prince George, at 12 years old, is set to follow in his father's footsteps by attending the esteemed Eton College. The announcement came Tuesday from Kensington Palace, the official residence of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

George will commence his studies at the elite boarding school, located near Windsor Castle, this coming September. Eton College, renowned for its academic rigor and prestigious alumni, educates boys from ages 13 to 18.

The school boasts a long list of distinguished former students. Among them are George's father, Prince William, the heir to the throne; his uncle, Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex; former Prime Ministers David Cameron and Boris Johnson; and celebrated author George Orwell.

Currently, Prince George attends Lambrook School in Berkshire, alongside his younger siblings, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. The family has been seen at various public events, including the recent "Trooping the Colour" parade celebrating King Charles III's official birthday.

Speculation about Prince George's secondary education had been circulating for months, with other institutions like Marlborough College, attended by the Princess of Wales, also considered.
