In p>1654, Newton entered the Royal Kinges Middle School, which was more than ten kilometers away from home. Newton's mother had hoped that he would become a farmer, but Newton himself had no intention of doing so and loved reading. With the increase of age, Newton became more and more fond of reading, meditating and doing small scientific experiments. When he was studying in Kinges Royal Middle School, he stayed at a pharmacist's house, which made him influenced by chemical experiments.
From the age of 12 to the age of 17, Newton studied in Kinges Royal Middle School, and his signature of that year can still be seen on the window sill of the school library. He dropped out of school and returned to Elshorpe village in October 1659 because his widowed mother wanted Newton to be a farmer. Although Newton obeyed his mother's wishes, according to Newton's peers, farming made Newton quite unhappy.
Fortunately, Henry Stokes, the headmaster of Kinges Royal Middle School, persuaded Newton's mother, and Newton was sent back to school to finish his studies. He finished his middle school studies at the age of 18 and got a perfect graduation report.
