Count Claus goes to Scottish boarding school | Royals

entertainment">The Government Information Service confirmed on Wednesday on behalf of the prince Constantine and princess Laurentien the intended change of school, without providing any further explanation. Claus is not a member of the Royal House.

entertainment">Until now, the count was a student at the VCL in The Hague. At Gordonstoun he will do the English final exam A-levels. In addition to academic training, the school also offers the opportunity to develop other interests, such as sports and theater. It is interesting for Claus that he gets the chance to further develop his starting sneaker company Grails in the form of a special assignment.

entertainment">Gordonstoun is known for its international character and the broad educational philosophy of founder Kurt Hahn, but also for his imposing regime in the last century. Corporal punishment, strict discipline, and cold showers were key to Hahn’s approach to keeping children in line. The British Prince Charles, who also went to Gordonstoun, has been left with trauma.
