Boarding Life and House Tests

William and Harry boarded at Manor House, and George is expected to do the same. Eton says its 25 boarding houses each shelter about 55 boys, roughly 11 per grade, and every student has a room. One early challenge is the famous "colours test," a quiz on house colours and locations that all newcomers face.

Family Choice and Stability

William’s attendance at Eton was influenced by Princess Diana and family ties. The school later provided stability for him after his mother’s death in 1997, and its proximity to Windsor allowed him weekend visits to the late Queen Elizabeth.
