Education
Prince Harry attended the same schools as his brother. He started at Mrs Jane Mynors' nursery school in west London from September 1987 when he was three, attending for just two mornings a week at first. While there he appeared in school nativity plays - including his first speaking role, as a shepherd, in 1988.
On 11th September 1989, Prince Harry joined Prince William at the pre-prep Wetherby School, also in west London - on mornings only for the first few weeks. At the end of that term he sang a solo at the school's Christmas concert. While Harry was still at Wetherby, Prince William started at Ludgrove School in Berkshire. Prince Harry joined him there in September 1992.
In September 1998 Harry started at Eton College, Windsor. During his time at Eton, Harry was House Captain of Games and represented the school at rugby, cricket and polo.
In May 2003, Prince Harry led the Combined Cadet Force Tattoo at Eton College. Joining the CCF was voluntary and Harry was awarded the highest rank of Cadet Officer on the 19th May 2003. He was the Parade Commander for the Combined Cadet Forces Tattoo at Eton College, giving the commands to the 48-strong Guard of Honour at the annual ceremony. Prince Harry’s basic military training at Eton included weapon handling, foot drill, first aid, navigation and field craft. His advanced military skills training was in writing and delivering orders, advanced infantry tactics and close target reconnaissance.
Prince Harry also performed as Conrade in a school performance of Much Ado About Nothing.
Prince Harry left Eton in June 2003. A week later, he learnt that his A level results qualified him to fulfil his ambition to join the army.
