The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have changed their children’s school only days after they first started over security concerns about the school run.<\/b><\/p>\n
The schools’ names have not been disclosed, but it is understood that the Sussexes’ private security team had been concerned that the distance and the heavy traffic on the original school run route had made it difficult to make secure.<\/p>\n
A source close to the couple said: “The parents remain extremely grateful to all the teachers and staff for the love, care and effort they have shown their family.<\/p>\n
“This decision should in no way be interpreted as a reflection on the school or the exceptional care the children have received there.”<\/p>\n
It’s understood that the security for the children meant travelling with an additional car, and that travelling in convoy proved difficult in the busy school run traffic.<\/p>\n
The checks on the route are believed to have initially taken place before term time, but with the school traffic it was deemed not safe enough.<\/p>\n
“The decision for the children to move school was taken following a discussion with the family’s security team about the practicalities of their current arrangements,” said a source close to the couple.<\/p>\n
It has also emerged that the Sussexes are going to be given a review of their publicly funded security, following their return to live in the UK.<\/p>\n
It is understood that the committee which oversees royal and VIP security, known as Ravec, is to reconsider Prince Harry and Meghan’s level of police protection now that they and their two children are full-time residents rather than visitors.<\/p>\n
It will assess any risks they face in their new home and the type of trips taken by the couple and their family, such as regular travel routes and school runs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
