Hope you can help... my dd1 is at a primary school two miles away from our house. it has a broad mix of backgrounds/social mobility etc. However, she hasnt made any friends to speak of - having been invited to just three parties in four years (inc nursery). i invited kids from her class to her birthday last year but none came or even bothered to send apol ogies which upset me. i had to try so hard to hide this from her. She is judged, i think, because we are not from the schools' immediate area and because a relative of mine taught there before- my face doesn't fit thefore neither does hers. Would you rather your kids went to a Primary School your neighbours attedened so they could make friends where you live? Is it more important for them to learn than to makde friends at this age?? I should add that she's not bulllied there and seems reasonably happy and is a resilient little girl..Although ds1 is due to start same school in sept and i worry for him because he is quieter.... I feel very mixed up....
