Security is being reviewed at Prince George's primary school in London after a 40-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of attempted burglary.
The four-year-old son of Prince William and Kate Middleton started last week at Thomas's Battersea, a private school in southwest London, with his first day receiving wide media coverage in Britain and beyond.
Prince George is understood not to have been at the school at the time of the incident on Tuesday.

Prince George only started at the school last week, on September 7.
He was expected to begin by attending school for half-days, before building up to longer hours.
A Kensington Palace spokeswoman said: "We are aware of the issue but we would not comment further on security matters."
Thomas's Battersea educates 560 boys and girls aged from four to 13, with around 20 pupils in each class.
