My son has just started at the local school nursery and is due to start reception in January. He is very shy and cautious around new people, although he has been going to a local private nursery for the last year and a half where he had made a couple of very good friends. I am really worried that he will not make friends easily and be bullied or excluded as I was in primary school, where I was very shy too. I went with him for the 45 minute induction session and he played on his own for the whole time. He seems to go and is happy when leaving (he's done 2 full sessions now), but I am sick with worry about him. Has anyone got any advice????
