School shoes

Does anyone have any recommendations for school shoes? I am loosing my mind as DD has rejected so many.

She wants lace up (going into juniors), size 13.5 or 1. She has ASD, known school refusal at times and shoes are a big trigger for her. They need to be soft, not 'girly' but look like a shoe (not the barefoot ones) and suitable for school. Not trainers as she won't wear them as too "different" from friends. She had many Jane style last year but refuses to have that style again.

I have 3 days to fine some and I have been in all the usual shops/looked online.

Budget would be anything now as I'm desperate! Thanks

Have you looked on the M and S website? They had some like this last year.

Dr Martens have a kids range, they are sized down and much softer than the adult range. Could be worth a look.

Interested in this thread?

Shoezone? Deichman ? ( Not sure that is the correct spelling!)

Kickers

Some schools say kickers red/green tabs have to be cut off! (Which is stupid in my opinion!)
