My girl is the only one in her reception year. Has anyone else had a similar experience... and can it ever work out well in your opinion or experience?
We didn’t find out the gender imbalance until after we had begun the induction period and we were told by the school that it would probably be fine as they have mixed year group, ie yr 1 girls in her class. At first it seemed fine, but what we see now is that the yr 1 girls don’t choose to play with reception kids and that our girl feels increasingly left out of the boys games and social groups. She has no individual play dates at all, though she is included in group play dates. Can this ever work, or should we pull her out of school? A nearby school has said they are keen to take her and she would have 20 girls in her year group there. However, her current school is reassuring us that it will all be ok. Can this possibly work out well? Any thoughts would be appreciated!
