Barbie: Princess Charm School

In the kingdom of Gardania, teenage Blair Willows works as a waitress at a small café to support her sickly adoptive mother and younger sister Emily. Returning home from work, Blair is shocked to find out via a televised broadcast that she has won a lottery for a scholarship to become a Lady Royal—a princess’s advisor—at the prestigious Princess Charm School, a magical academy where princesses from different kingdoms are educated. Emily reveals that she signed up Blair for the lottery multiple times to ensure her selection. Despite Blair’s reluctance, her mother assures her that it is a good opportunity.

An employee named Brock takes Blair to school via carriage, where she is recognized by a golden retriever named Prince. Blair meets Headmistress Alexandra Privet, who tells her that each student is assigned a fairy to act as their personal princess assistant. Blair's fairy, Grace, brings her to her dorm where she meets her roommates, Princesses Isla and Hadley. Blair is also introduced to Dame Devin, sister-in-law of the late Queen Isabella, and Devin’s daughter, Delancy, who will be crowned princess and ruler of Gardania at the school's graduation ceremony. Blair struggles in her classes as both Dame Devin and Delancy take a strong disliking to her, but improves when she receives special tutoring from Headmistress Privet.

While exploring the royal palace, Blair and her roommates happen upon a portrait of a young Queen Isabella and note her striking resemblance to Blair. Upon seeing another portrait depicting the late royal family (including Prince as a puppy) and learning that Blair was found by her adoptive mother on the same day the royal family died in a car crash, Isla and Hadley deduce that she is Queen Isabella’s long-lost daughter, Princess Sophia and the true heir to the throne. This discovery is overheard by Delancy. At dinner, in an effort to sabotage Blair even further, Dame Devin announces “Delancy’s” plan to demolish the poorer neighborhoods where Blair’s family lives and replace them with new parks.

Instead of returning home in defeat, Blair becomes determined to find the legendary crown of Gardania, which is said to glow when worn by the rightful heir. On the night before graduation, Dame Devin interferes when she plants jewelry in Blair’s room and accuses her and her roommates of stealing. Headmistress Privet orders the three of them to be detained, however they escape with the help of Delancy who believes that Blair really is Princess Sophia. Blair, her roommates, and Grace sneak into the palace vault, but are caught by Dame Devin and Brock who take the crown and lock the girls inside.

The next morning, Delancy attempts to stall her coronation, giving Blair and her friends enough time to escape. Blair arrives and makes a claim to the throne. Blair, her friends, and Dame Devin struggle to grab the crown which eventually falls into Delancy’s hands. To her mother’s dismay, Delancy places the crown on Blair’s head; the crown glows and magically dresses Blair in a new gown, confirming her identity as Princess Sophia.

Dame Devin angrily berates her daughter and inadvertently reveals that she orchestrated the deaths of Queen Isabella and her family so Delancy could inherit the throne. Dame Devin is arrested and Sophia elects Delancy as her Lady Royal. Sophia is reunited with her adoptive family at a celebratory dance that evening.
