History

The Royal Academy was created in 1942 by Mohammed V under the French protectorate.[2] This came after the monarch initially tried to send his son Hassan II to the École des Roches [fr] in France but couldn't because of World War II. The school opens a class for each senior member of the Alaouite Royal family. It previously opened classes for Hassan II, Moulay Abdallah, Lalla Amina, Mohammed VI, the daughters of Hassan II: Lalla Meryem, Lalla Asma, Lalla Hasna; Prince Moulay Rachid, Prince Moulay Ismail, Sharifa Lalla Soukaïna Filali[3] and Moulay Hassan, Crown Prince of Morocco.
