Kate Middleton reveals tricky skill Prince George is learning at school – and she’s having to help

PRINCE George has started a new school this year and has been tasked with learning a new skill, according to Kate Middleton.

As part of the uniform dress code at the £7,000-a-term Lambrook School near Ascot, Berkshire, the young prince needs to wear a tie for the first time.

The Princess of Wales let slip during a visit to Wales this week that she’s been giving him a helping hand with the tricky process.

Speaking to children near Holyhead RNLI station, Kate spoke to four-year-old Theo Crompton and pointed out his tie.

She asked the child: “Do you tie your own tie?” to which he confirmed he did.

The royal mum-of-three responded: “Well done you. I’ve been teaching George because he has got to wear a tie now for school, so I’m having to teach him how to do it.

“But well done, you’ve done a good job with your tie. Nice to meet you.”

George, nine, and Charlotte, seven, previously attended Thomas’ School in Battersea, south London, while four-year-old Louis went to Willcocks Nursery in South Kensington, west London.

But after Wills and Kate moved the family from Apartment 1A Kensington Palace to four-bed Adelaide Cottage, George and Charlotte and their younger brother Louis will receive a top education together, complete with mandatory Saturday lessons. 

If the royal youngsters attend full-time without boarding, it will cost William and Kate an estimated £53,508 per year.

The private school is a nine-mile drive from their new abode near Windsor Castle.

Lambrook is a co-ed preparatory that started in 1860 and allows part-time boarding.

It scored ‘excellent’ in its most recent Independent Schools Inspectorate. 

During their visit to Swansea and Anglesey in Wales, Prince William joked that they are looking for a “babysitter” for their kids.
