Hi, DD is in year 1 and is shy and very sensitive. She has been very happy in reception but has never formed any special friends. Since moving up to year 1 there are a group of 3 girls who play together at lunchtime and playtime and she keeps asking the 'leader' of the group if she can play. The 'leader' is a very outspoken, confident and popular girl, but for some reason she has told my DD that she can't play, when DD asks why she tells her 'because I said so'. DD has told me that she runs away and has no-one to play with and this is really upsetting her. She told me this morning that she wished there was no playtime and lunchtime at school. She is happy at school, other than the playground.
I'm not really sure how I should be dealing with this situation so would really appreciate any advice you can offer.
