LONDON — The heir to the heir to the heir to the British throne has taken a big step up the educational ladder.
Kensington Palace said Prince George started nursery school Wednesday, a milestone for the young future king.
Prince William and his wife, Kate, marked the occasion by releasing two photographs of 2½-year-old George outside the school building.
Kate took the photos, which show George in a blue jacket with a backpack.
It was only the latest batch of photographs that Kate has taken of her two children, including Charlotte, now 8 months old.
The royal couple — also known as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge — had announced he would be attending Westacre Montessori School in Norfolk, which is 110 miles north of London.
The school is near the family home, Anmer Hall, in Norfolk.
The school has said he will receive the same treatment as other pupils.
“It all went well,” a source told reporters.
