She is August born, and started after October half term.
It started ok, but after a few weeks she started disliking going, and it is now at the point where she cries / moans and whinges about going. We are late nearly every day as I'm spending time coaxing her out of the house.
When I speak with her about it, I get the impression (from as far as a 4 yr old can express themselves) that its a chaotic, noisy, boisterous environment, and that her teacher shouts which she doesn't like.
She's a quiet, independent, fairly introverted child, though she plays well and has friends.
I just don't think she is emotionally ready for this transition. (She is fine and on target with reading/writing/maths)
Has anyone got any tips on how I can manage this? It's horrible to see her unhappy. (She seems ok when she's there, it's just getting there)
