A spokesman for the Sussexes said: '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.
asserted
children → wear → arrangements
'The parents remain extremely grateful to all the teachers and staff for the love, care and effort they have shown their family.
asserted
they → remain → family
‘This decision should in no way be interpreted as a reflection on the school or the exceptional care the children have received there.'
asserted
children → interpret → school
Sources close to the couple said the decision was made due to the practicalities of getting the children there and back.
Hello! magazine quoted a friend of the couple saying: 'It's a real shame, because they absolutely adored the school, the kids and their parents.
asserted
they → say → school
It was perfect for them in every way and the children really enjoyed their time there.
asserted
children → enjoy → time
They really wanted to make it work, but they had to make a difficult decision based on the fact that the team couldn't make the school run operationally secure.'

school → want → fact
Archie and Lilibet will now join another school in the area after visiting for a taster session on Monday.

The dramatic development came as it emerged that Harry's demand for taxpayer-funded police protection is being 'reviewed' now he is back in Britain.
asserted
he → come → Britain
The duke and duchess are said to have been informed that 'a decision' was made at a meeting last week to examine the threat to both of them.
asserted
decision → say → them
The prince has been at loggerheads with the Home Office for years over its decision to remove his automatic right to security.
asserted
prince → remove → security
Harry has long argued that he was born a prince and needs police protection when in the UK.
asserted
he → argue → UK
But he lost a series of legal battles against the Home Office which deemed he had forfeited the right to be able to call at will on taxpayer-funded protection after he quit as a frontline royal in 2020 and moved to a new life in California.
asserted
he → lose → California
Only last year, after yet another defeat at the Royal Courts of Justice – against his father His Majesty's government – the prince declared in a petulant BBC interview that he could not imagine a time when he could safely bring his family to his country of birth.
uncertain
he → declare → birth

Meghan wrote alongside the montage: 'He's simply the best.
asserted
He → play → montage
But now that he has had a sudden change of heart, bringing Meghan and his children to live in the UK, his access to police protection is being reviewed, it was reported yesterday evening.
asserted
it → have → protection
The decision is said to involve reviewing the risks to Prince Harry and also to his wife.
asserted
decision → say → wife
ITV News said the Home Office committee that decides on security provision for high-profile royals and politicians – known as Ravec – has written to Harry informing him a 'full review' will take place.
asserted
review → say → place
If true, then this decision defies complaints made by Team Sussex about the meeting held last week by Ravec, the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures.
asserted
decision → defy → Royalty
Some in Harry's camp had accused Buckingham Palace of trying to scupper the Ravec meeting with King Charles's bombshell letter last week which made clear Buckingham Palace's view that the Sussexes were 'private citizens' not working royals.
asserted
Sussexes → accuse → letter
Harry and Meghan were taken by surprise by the letter - written by the Lord Chamberlain - and would prefer to be known as 'public figures', it was made clear by sources close to them.
asserted
it → take → them
They believed the timing of the letter may have been an attempt to influence the Ravec committee on whether to reinstate Harry's taxpayer-funded security.
uncertain
timing → believe → security
At the time, the Daily Mail reported that such claims were incorrect, and the letter was sent out by the palace to offer clarity ahead of a busy programme for the Sussexes, not to interfere with his battles with the Home Office committee.
uncertain
letter → report → committee
In fact, those close to the King believed the move could make it easier for him to see his son privately.
uncertain
him → believe → son
Last night, Harry's fears that the letter could have been designed to block his bid for security appeared unfounded with the news that Ravec is going to fully review his need for protection for him and his family.
uncertain
Ravec → design → him
ITV News's royal correspondent Chris Ship said: 'It was decided that Harry should get a full review of his security now that he is resident in his home country and his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, have started classes at a British school.'
It was said the official review carried out by Ravec, called a Risk Management Board (RMB), would be conducted for both Harry and Meghan.
asserted
review → say → Harry
