George, the future king, starts at Thomas's Battersea next Thursday and will be joined by his parents the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge when he walks through the school gates.

A school guide published last week described the institution as "busy" and "slightly chaotic" and highlighted how 19 different languages are spoken in pupils' homes.

The school, where fees cost from PS17,604 ($A28,000) a year, was reviewed as "a big, busy, slightly chaotic school for cosmopolitan parents who want their children to have the best English education money can buy."
