Kate Middleton urged to 'break tradition' as huge decision about future looms

The Prince and Princess of Wales have a huge decision looming - and it will directly impact future King, Prince George. The couple's oldest child, who is second-in-line to the throne, turns 12 later this year meaning his time at his current school of Lambrook will soon be over. George attends the Berkshire prep school with his siblings Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis but as he reaches his teenage years, he will have to move to a new school for older children.
There has been much speculation about which parent George might follow in the footsteps of with Prince William attending Eton College and Kate, a former pupil of Marlborough College. Both those schools see pupils board but at present, the 11-year-old is a day pupil at Lambrook.
And royal expert Jennie Bond told the Mirror that it would be wonderful if William and Kate broke tradition when it came to their school choice for George - especially after the tough year the family have faced in the wake of dealing with health challenges.
The former BBC royal correspondent told the Mirror: "From the reports we’ve had, it certainly seems that William and Catherine have undertaken a great deal of research into the best school for George - and, perhaps, the other children. "I think it’s quite likely that, after the year they have had - and how unsettling it must have been for George and the other children, no matter how hard their parents tried to lessen the trauma of cancer - that they would all feel happier and more secure if they could remain as a tight family unit.
