The two chatted together as they walked into the school, with Dr Jill matching Kate by donning a recycled £440 bright pink L’Agence Fashion blazer as well as a white £2,000 Akris dress and £630 Valentino heels.
Meanwhile, newlywed Carrie was later seen wearing a £1,395 vibrant pink Roksanda gown, which she borrowed from a rental website for a discounted rate.

And earlier today, Dr Jill and Kate heard how the school’s pupils are supported through a bespoke Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum, which uses child-led teaching to help its pupils to develop as independent, confident and successful learners.
Kate wore her bouncy brunette locks styled in her signature side parting and opted for minimal makeup as she sported a simple smokey eye.
Her fuschia pink dress, which is currently sold out online, is described as perfect for a ‘first date’.
The silk dress, which was made in Italy, appears to have been slightly customised for the Duchess, with a longer hemline and a bold sixties style belt added.
The Duchess has long been a fan of Alexander McQueen, with the luxury house designing her iconic wedding gown and becoming a go-to of the royal since her marriage to Prince William in April 2011.
L.K. Bennett is also a firm high street favourite of the duchess, and the choice continued her trend of championing British brands over the past 18 months.
The two then led a roundtable discussion with a number of representatives from the early years sector who have been influential in The Duchess’ work in this space
They discussed why early childhood is so important to lifelong outcomes and what can be done to make a difference.
