Since starting school at Thomas\u2019s Battersea on Thursday, Prince George has, for all intents and purposes, become a normal pupil, even going by the name George Cambridge with his classmates. But there\u2019s one rite of passage for school children that the 4-year-old royal won\u2019t be allowed: He can\u2019t have a best friend.<\/p>\n
But the policy (which isn’t written in stone) isn\u2019t specific to just George\u2014in fact, it applies to his fellow pupils as well. According to Loose Women <\/i>panelist Jane Moore, the prep school discourages children from singling out just one best friend. \u201cThere are signs everywhere saying, \u2018Be kind,\u2019 that\u2019s the ethos of the school. They don\u2019t encourage you to have best friends,\u201d she said, according to the New York Post<\/i>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a policy that if your child is having a party, unless every child in the class is invited you don\u2019t give out the invites in class, which I think is quite a good thing as you don\u2019t feel excluded.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
George isn\u2019t the only one meant to feel included. \u201cIt\u2019s a school that really expects parental involvement. The parents are very heavily involved in the school so they [Kate Middleton and Prince William] will be as well,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
