The royal couple also released a new family photograph of themselves and their children - which will feature on their Christmas card. The photograph shows the duke with his son, Prince George, standing immediately in front of him, while Charlotte stands with her mother.

School fees are £3,050 a term for mornings and £1,800 for afternoons, which can set parents back £14,500 if children attend both sessions over three terms. The official description on the website also reads: "The morning school accommodates 32 children aged between 2 3/4 and 5 years, it is a fun and structured morning with lots of free play where children embark on the first stages of learning to read, write and to understand simple numbers with the minimum of pressure. Each child becomes part of a group with their own key person. This teacher will start a portfolio of your child's progress and discuss with you all developments. The morning session is held 5 days a week from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m." George, four, currently attends the £17,604 a year Thomas's Battersea day school.
