The pair, who relocated their from Canada earlier this year, with their one-year-old son Archie, could typically be looking at paying £30,000 a year in school fees after it's understood they've been making contact with education establishments in the West Hollywood area.
A source told The Mirror, 'Meghan wants to send Archie to a diverse and socially integrated pre-school. She has been in touch with schools and started to make plans.
'For her the big thing is that she doesn’t want Archie to attend a posh private school and wants it to be as diverse as possible.'
The news comes after reports the family is using security which costs in the region of £7,000 a day to protect them - and the likes used by A-list celebrities in the region.
