Why did Beatrice attend a girls school while Eugenie went co-ed?

Wasn't there a problem with the school Eugenie originally was to go to? It went under investigation for something. I think her present school was a second choice.

I wonder if Eugenie will do a magazine interview like Bea did when she was turning 17?

The school in Switerzerland (Aiglon) was when Beatrice was eleven. It was Eugenie's school a couple back that was the only second choice; the most recent two wouldn't have been necessary had she gone to Switzerland quite a while ago, but since that was in 2000, St. George's, Windsor and Marlborough were always her first choices for pre-prep and college. I don't think Aiglon was recent enough that we could still call Marlborough her second choice, as she may have come to college in England anyway.

Cowarth, the girls each got to chose their schools. Beatrice is more traditional and proper while Eugenie is more outgoing and sporty, and Marlborough and St Georges Ascot were the schools that happened to fit their personalities best.

I think there were some allegations of pedophilia by a teacher at the Switzerland school (but I don't think it involved students there). I don't remember if anything was ever proved.

That is true of both schools. A crucial difference is that at Aiglon, the scandal was the school head, not a coach.

ooo I didn't know that. WEll St. George Ascot and Malborough are both fine schools so it probably doesn't matter that much now, just that they are getting a good education.

Question: are photos going to be released for her 17th birthday?
