Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have reportedly switched their children's school mere days after the new term began.

Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, now seven and five years old respectively, are believed to have begun at their new school last week, with their parents subsequently choosing to transfer them elsewhere.

This development follows reports that Harry and Meghan received guidance regarding their security arrangements, with sources now indicating that the family's protection detail will undergo evaluation following their relocation back to the UK. This comes as Prince William was warned to "steer clear" of Archie and Lilibet.

The young royals are said to have spent two days becoming acquainted with their new educators and peers before their parents opted to remove them from the initial institution.

Individuals close to the Sussexes have emphasized there were no concerns with the school's quality, but rather with the logistical challenges of transportation.

According to HELLO!, congested traffic in the family's current neighborhood, combined with the considerable distance between the school and their residence, are believed to have been factors, placing additional pressure on their compact, private protection team.

One particular episode is also reported to have complicated their vehicles' ability to maintain proper formation, heightening security worries.

A friend of Harry and Meghan shared with the publication, "It's a real shame, because they absolutely adored the school, the kids and their parents.

"It was perfect for them in every way and the children really enjoyed their time there. 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."

A spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess stated: "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.

"The parents remain extremely grateful to all the teachers and staff for the love, care and effort they have shown their family.

"This decision should in no way be interpreted as a reflection on the school or the exceptional care the children have received there."
