Eton College implements new privacy rules for Prince George
Prince George is set to begin his studies at Eton College in Berkshire this September, following in the footsteps of his father, Prince William, and his uncle, Prince Harry.
In anticipation of his arrival, Eton College has implemented heightened security and privacy measures. The school has posted new “no photography” signs around the campus and on fences to deter paparazzi and onlookers. These measures aim to protect the privacy of Prince George and other students from high-profile families, particularly in an era of widespread social media and smartphone use.
While Prince William has positive associations with the institution, Prince Harry previously described his time at Eton as a “purgatory” in his memoir, noting that he felt overwhelmed by the school’s environment and academic demands. Prince George will be transitioning to boarding school life, where he will reside on campus.
