Harry and Meghan Pull Children From School After Security Team Flags Commute

Overview

• In the first weeks after the Sussexes’ return to Britain, Archie and Lilibet left their originally chosen private school after two introductory days and were enrolled at a different school.
• The family’s private security team raised specific safety problems with the school run, citing the long distance, heavy traffic and occasions when escort vehicles did not form a closed convoy.
• A spokesperson for Harry and Meghan said the decision followed talks with their security advisers and was made on practical safety grounds.
• RAVEC has asked for detailed information about the family’s daily movements as part of follow-up oversight of the protection arrangements.
• Coverage has split between corroborated security statements from the couple and unverified commentary from commentators, and the change has required Archie and Lilibet to adjust to a second new school setting in a short period.
