Princess Madeleine have taken at least 130 study points at university level in Sweden, which means three years of full time university studies and she has a Bachelor of Arts degree, maybe even a Masters degree. Plugga som en prinsessa | AllaStudier.se

I know a few and would love to discuss, but maybe the moderators can advice on whether this type of information is appropriate to share or not. Some royal houses openly disclose the information but others would like to keep them as private as possible for security reasons. What has been widely disclosed is that Prince Christian and Princess Isabella of Denmark attend the Tranegård Public School in Hellerup.

[Archduchess Zelia]

Prince Nikolai and Prince Felix of Denmark attend the private school, Krebs' Skole, on Østerbro in Copenhagen, the same school Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim went to.

Their cousins, Prince Christian and Princess Isabella attend the public school, Tranegårdsskolen, in Gentofte.

[amaryllus]

I do know prince Hisahito of Japan attends Ochanomizu University elementary-the first of the imperial family not to attend exclusive Gakushuin school, the school of the aristocracy.

[Lee-Z]

The children of dutch King Willem-Alexander go to a regular school (not necessarily the poshest regular school, but a good school near where they live)

Belgium
Princesses Elisabeth and Eleonore and Prince Gabriel attend a public school but quite good called Sint-Jan Berchmanscollege in Marolles, Brussels. Prince Emmanuel attends Eureka special school in Kessel-lo.

Dutch
Princesses Catharina-Amalia, Alexia and Ariane go to the Public Primary School Bloemcampschool in Wassenaar.

Morocco
Crown Prince Moulay Hassan and Princess Lalla Khadija attend the prestigious College Royale at the Royal Palace.

Norway
Princess Ingrid Alexandra and Prince Sverre Magnus attend the public school Jansløkka in Asker, close to the Crown Prince family's residence Skaugum.

Spain
Infantas Leonor and Sofia attend private school Santa María de los Rosales School in Aravaca. Their father, the Prince of Asturias is an alumnus of the school.

In Britain, Lady Louise attends St George's School in Windsor Castle. I imagine that Viscount Severn will also attend. Her second cousin, Margarita Armstrong-Jones, attends Garden House in Kensington. If I'm correct, Margarita is of the age where children leave primary school, so she probably doesn't attend any more. I've read that Lady Sarah Chatto's sons, Samuel and Arthur, are attending Eton College in Berkshire, although I'm not sure if that's accurate. St George's and Garden House are both private/preparatory schools. In the UK, most people call Eton College a public school (in England, public schools are schools that are usually one of the top schools in the country. Most of the public schools are fairly well known and pupils usually board there).

In Belgium, (I've read that) Princess Louise, Prince Nicolas and Prince Aymeric attend the Lycee Francais de Bruxelles, a French school in Brussels. I also remember reading that Princess Astrid's daughters used to attend Sevenoaks School in Kent. I think the Lycee Francais de Bruxelles is a public school, although I'm not sure. Sevenoaks is a private/public boarding school.

I would imagine that the Behn sisters attend school in London since they live there.

So is Lady Louise a boarder at St. George?

The children of Crown Prince Pavlos of Greece are also attended or have attended Garden House in London. And Olympia, their eldest daughter just graduated from Queen's Gate in South Kensington.

Lady Louise is not a boarder at St George's

Thanks Cepe, I thought it was odd. Excuse, my ignorance (I don't follow closely the British Royal Family) but where do her family and she reside? In Windsor? I was just wondering what kind of "commute" she has.

[amaryllus]

I would think James will attend Eton in few years or possibly gordonstoun like Edward did.

They live in Bagshot, I should think the drive would take about 15/20 minutes through Windsor Great Park.

Starting age for Eton is 13. He would attend a prep school first.

[amaryllus]

yes, a suitable prep school then one of the public schools. i don't know why but I have a feeling Louise won't go to a boarding school.

Thanks for the info! I thought they lived in London...! Though I'm sure they have a London base, too. I think they are both very cute children and I'm glad they can have a relatively normal childhood.

I thought that James already started school. He's going to be six in December, so I'd venture he's done with the English equivalent of kindergarten, and will move on to grade one in September?
