PRICESS Charlotte is to join older brother Prince George at his London school from September.
Charlotte, who celebrated her fourth birthday on May 4, will become a pupil at Thomas's Battersea in south London where it is taught that kindness is as important as academic success.
Princess Charlotte is the second child and only daughter of Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge.
She is fourth in the line of succession to the throne.
Simon O'Malley, headmaster at Thomas's Battersea, said: "We are delighted that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have decided that Princess Charlotte will join her elder brother, Prince George, at Thomas's Battersea.
"We greatly look forward to welcoming her and all of our new pupils to the school in September."
George, who is aged five, began at the school in September 2017.
Thomas's Battersea, which describes itself as a Christian school, open to children of all faiths, believes in "praise as the greatest motivator".
Art, ballet, drama, ICT, French, music and physical education are all taught by specialist teachers from a child's first day in school.
It is set in a Grade II listed building in south-west London, the former Sir Walter St John's Grammar School which dates back to 1700.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
