Last year the young Prince of Cambridge was accompanied to school by accredited members of the press to mark the milestone of his first day of ‘big school’.

George, who is now aged five, arrived at Thomas’s Battersea with his Prince William and posed for a couple pictures, but his mother was absent due to morning sickness.

This year it is expected Kate, who gave birth to Prince Louis in April, will be supporting George every step of the way as he returns to Thomas’s Battersea to start the Michaelmas (autumn) term on September 6.

Last September, William had confessed to another parent that, although the first day of school had gone well for George, the novelty of ‘big boy’ school had worn off and he had been reluctant to attend.

Mum-of-two Louise Smith met the Duke of Cambridge as he carried out a royal engagement in Milton Keynes.

She told reporters: “It was really exciting meeting William. He told me he’d just dropped Prince George off at school and he didn’t want to go. Sounds a bit like mine really.”

Kate, 36, was unable to attend her son’s first day of junior school last year, as she suffered with morning sickness while pregnant with Prince Louis.

Astonishingly she made up for lost time by dropping George off at school just one day after giving birth to his younger brother in April.

She is said to blend in seamlessly with other parents, speaking to her down-to-earth manner.

One parent said to the Daily Mail: “No one really gives Kate a second glance when she does the school drop-off. 

“We have a Victoria’s Secret model doing the school run, too, and the dads are far more interested in her!”

George has a few weeks left of summer holidays to enjoy, and then will return to start year one at his private prep school, founded in 1700, on Battersea High Street in London.

He will need to adapt to a new teacher and classroom, but will have the same uniform, classmates and friends, including his cousin Maud, also five-years-old, the daughter of Lord and Lady Frederick Windsor.
