First Lady Jill Biden, Kate Middleton Visit School in Cornwall

First Lady Jill Biden met with Kate Middleton today. Together they toured a school in Cornwall England near the G7 Summit where President Biden will be meeting with other leaders from across the globe. Biden and Middleton focused their meeting on children and education at the Conor Downs Academy in a classroom of 4 and 5 year old students. The women also participated in a roundtable discussion about early childhood education and were gifted with bouquets of local flowers grown and picked by students at the school.

Childhood education is one of the many causes Middleton has championed as she and Prince William have taken much larger public roles in recent years. Jill Biden also has a long career in teaching. The school tour is one of several events Jill will attend on her trip to the United Kingdom. She and the President will meet with Queen Elizabeth on Sunday. From there the First Lady will fly back to the United States and President Biden will continue onto Brussels for the NATO Summit and Geneva where he will meet with Vladimir Putin.
