Education
Diana began her education at Silfield Private School in Gayton, Norfolk, and moved to Riddlesworth Hall School, an all-girls boarding school near Diss, when she was nine.[17] She joined her sisters at West Heath Girls' School in Sevenoaks, Kent, in 1973.[18] She did not shine academically, failing her O-levels twice. Her outstanding community spirit was recognised with an award from West Heath.[19] She left West Heath when she was sixteen.[20] Her brother Charles recalls her as being quite shy up until that time.[21] She showed a talent for music as an accomplished pianist.[19] Diana also excelled in swimming and diving, and studied ballet and tap dance.
