Tradition break
At first, the offspring of the British royal family were traditionally taught at home, and not sent to kindergarten. Starting from the age of three, Prince Charles – the current King of Great Britain Charles III – studied at Buckingham Palace with his governess Catherine Peebles, she also taught his sister Princess Anne, as well as younger brothers Andrew and Edward.
In 1985, Prince William, at the age of three, went to the private pre-school Mrs. Mynors, located around the corner from Kensington Palace, the residence of his parents. Prince Harry ended up there two years later.
