It’s hard to imagineQueen Elizabethas anything but her steady, insightful self.
But before she was queen, she was a princess who was not destined to take the throne.
As a girl, Elizabeth was taught to read by her mother.
When things changed and Elizabeth’s future role became fully recognized, her educational pursuits were also reexamined.
As she got older, Elizabeth started learning from some of the leading minds in England.
She also learned biblical history from Canon Crawley, of St. George’s Chapel (perThe Atlantic).
Their education was unique in more ways than one.
The sisters were the last members of theroyal familyto have an education made up of tutors and governesses.
Princess Anne was enrolled at Benenden School.
Charles went on to study anthropology, archaeology, and history at Trinity College.
Anne and Andrew didn’t pursue college educations, while Edward attended Jesus College for some time.
