Posing alongside the 23-year-old, whose father is footballer Dwight Yorke, in a van, she wrote: "College done. So proud of my boy. Onto the next chapter xx."
In the image, Katie pouted for the camera and wore a full face of make-up.
Harvey, who has Prader-Willi syndrome, septo-optic dysplasia, autism, and learning difficulties, looked delighted to be heading home, wearing a green shirt.
It was only back in June that Katie revealed she had sent him back to college early after he caused damage to her TV.
The mum-of-five revealed her shock at discovering that Harvey had become frustrated and smashed up her huge £3,000 television in the living room of her property.
Katie documented the discovery on her Snapchat account before giving Harvey a dressing down for his actions and also confirming that she would be returning him to his college a day early as a result of his behaviour.
The former glamour model uploaded a video in which she filmed Harvey's face and questioned him on his actions.
She revealed she was woken up by him smashing the TV at around six in the morning.
She asked him: "What has mummy just heard?"
Harvey calmly replied: "Smashing the TV."
Katie Price reveals son Harvey now weighs 30st as she gives update on his fat jabs and says 'I can't wait to see what he looks like'
When she went on to ask him why he did it, Harvey appeared to answer that it had angered him as it was early in the morning.
Katie later told her fans that he told her off-camera that he did not like what was on the screen but she appeared to rebuff this suggestions as she could be sure that there was nothing being shown.
In the clip of her speaking to Harvey, she added: "You was going to college tomorrow to get some new meds [medication], but now when are you going?
"You are going now."
Harvey replied to this news by saying: "Oh god!"
Katie insisted she had to spend the day getting a new TV and as such needed to send Harvey back to college before branding the whole ordeal as "sad".
Harvey went on to apologise as he insisted he "would not do it again".
Katie replied: "Well you've got to go to collage now and get some meds."
Her decision for Harvey to go back to collage comes after she revealed that her 22-year-old son was due to start weight loss injections in order to control his ballooning weight.
Harvey weight around 30st as a result of his many complex needs, including Prader-Willi syndrome, but Katie hopes the use of weight-loss drug Mounjaro will keep it under control.
Speaking on her podcast with sister and co-host Sophie Price, Katie said: "Hopefully Harvey starts his Mounjaro this week, but we'll talk about that next week and I'll go through all of what's happening about that."
The TV personality's eldest child has Prader-Willi syndrome, which sparks a constant desire to eat food and a permanent feeling of hunger which leads to obesity.
Harvey battles a series of debilitating conditions including autism, septo-optic dysplasia, ADHD and oppositional defiant disorder.
In a video posted in April, Katie revealed: 'I'm so heartbroken and gutted that his weight is just going up.
'I just googled it in stones, 188kg is just a few kg of being 30 stone.
'It's so life-threatening now, I'm still waiting for the doctors to get back to me starting on the mounjaro and his journey to a healthy life.'
She continued: 'It's so sad his quality of life at the moment where he's so big, he just can't really do much."
Katie is also mum to Junior and Princess Andre as well as Jett and Bunny Hayler.

I'm a teacher and I was left fuming by my end of year gift – it's borderline insulting & so cheap
WITH schools across the country breaking up for summer this week teachers are set to be in for a treat with a deluge of end of year gifts. However, one educator was left less than impressed by their gift with people describing it as 'insulting.' 1 Taking to Reddit the teacher shared a snap of their disappointing present, captioning the image 'What my school gave its teachers for Teacher Appreciation Week.' Much like the end of term in the UK, Teacher Appreciation Week is celebrated in the US by giving staff gifts as an acknowledgement of their hard work. But in this case the teacher would rather they hadn't bothered at all. The teacher revealed they had been given a total of seven Starburst sweets for being 'the star of our school.' But that's not all, they were also handed a sheet of bubble wrap with the instructions to 'pop every hour' as a form of stress relief. Fellow Redditors were equally baffled by the lacklustre gift, sharing their thoughts in the comments. One wrote: "This is so insulting.' 'Not even a whole pack though, how cheap can you possibly be,' added another. A third chimed in: 'Here's some left over Halloween candy and the packing material that came with something we wanted.' It comes after a mum-of-two named Lou took to social media to ask teachers what gifts they actually want to receive. I'm a mum of two and made Xmas gifts for my kids' teachers for £6, using bargains from Asda, Lidl and B&M The content creator shared her short clip with the caption 'Primary school teacher gifts help?!' Alongside her video, Lou then asked: 'Primary school teachers: What makes a great gift? 'I don't want to just get a mug or a key ring. 'Tell me something you actually WANT to get?' The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ lemon_squeezey, was posted just three days ago, but has quickly racked up 242,600 views, 566 likes and 916 comments. Teachers eagerly flocked to the comments to share the gifts parents should buy - with many suggesting gift cards. But there's also a free item that takes minutes to do and isn't a handmade card. One teacher shared a free idea that is so simple but really effective: "An email to the headteacher saying how amazing we are."

Robbie Williams shares devastating update on parents' health battle in emotional post
ROBBIE Williams has shared a heartbreaking update on his family's health battles – with his mum, dad and mother-in-law all currently battling illnesses. As the Something Beautiful icon, 51, continues his Britpop stadium tour, he has also been checking in and helping look after the family alongside wife, Ayda Field, 46. 7 7 7 7 His beloved mum, Janet, has dementia which has deteriorated her memory to the point that she struggles to recognise him, while his dad Pete – who he credits in his movie for his love of music and performance – has Parkinson's disease which leaves him unable to leave the house. On top of it all, Ayda's mother, Gwen, is battling cervical cancer, Lupus and Parkinson's at the same time. In a new post on Instagram, Robbie posted a long Q+A about himself and his family's situation - noting there were parts of the tour that he loved – crediting his band and support act Lottery Winners for bringing 'energy' he enjoys, as well as some of his more notable concerts so far. But then he added that he's been fighting off a bug across the past two weeks, and that life at home is incredibly tough. 'Things at home with my parents? VERY precarious right now,' he then wrote. 'It's real world stuff that deeply affects me and my wife. And if my wife is affected, you can bet I am. So the maths are: Virus + ill parents + stadium tour.' 'Every single moment of every single day is in preparation for those 2+ hours on stage. Outside of that? I have nothing',' he said. 'There is nothing to offer. I don't mind stating to those around me, I need protecting. And in return I protect them'. Despite this, he added a promise that he would be 'on top of his game' during the shows, though noted: 'Outside of that - I have nothing to offer or give, for the time being.' His brutally honest post comes after Robbie paid tribute to his family on stage during his tour, admitting on stage that his mum no longer knows who he is and he 'isn't ready for it'. He told the crowd: 'My mother has dementia and she doesn't know who I am anymore. She doesn't know where she is anymore. My dad has Parkinson's and he can't leave the house. 'He used to sing with me every night on stage, he would come out, steal the show and be charming and then wander backstage for a glass of red wine. Now he can't leave the house. 'My mother-in-law, who I absolutely worship and adore, has three illnesses. She's for lupus, Parkinson's and cancer. She is the most courageous lady and she is fighting, fighting, fighting.' He added: "It's a strange place to be, this place we find ourselves, 51 years old, it's very strange to be the grown up. "I'm not ready for it." 7 7
