Travelling a distance to grammar school

Hi, my daughter is starting at a grammar school located 10 miles away from our home. Only a very few children travel from our area to the school. My daughter is the only pupil from her primary school going to the grammar school. She will be getting the designated school bus. I am now feeling concerned about the social isolation issue. Can I ask if any other parent's children have found it difficult makjng friends or maintaining a 'best freind' relationship due to the distance? Thank you.

It's more the friendship aspect that I am concerned about. It's really important that my daughter makes friends as she got separated from her best friends when the forms were split. She has had difficulty finding a best friend since.
