Marlborough College under Scrutiny
A top private school, Marlborough College, which has been earmarked for Prince George, is currently under police investigation for an alleged sexual assault by a former teacher. The claims date back to the 1980s and are being taken very seriously by the school.
Concerns Addressed by the College
Marlborough College, attended by Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, from 1996 to 2000, expressed their commitment to the investigation and safeguarding protocols. A spokesperson for the college emphasized that they prioritize the wellbeing and safety of their students and staff above all else.
Police Involvement and Arrest
A man in his 80s has been arrested on suspicion of a "non-recent sexual assault" at the school following a report from a member of the public. The police are actively pursuing their inquiries in collaboration with the college.
Potential Future for Prince George
Marlborough College, with an annual tuition fee of £47,000, is in consideration to provide secondary education for Prince George once he completes his current schooling. Kate and Prince William visited the school with George last year.
