How to help 5 year old deal with difficult child at school

Hi all. My DD is 5 and in p1. She's been loving school, happy to go in and doing really well since she started but over the past few weeks has become much more reluctant going in in the mornings. Clingy, glum and generally saying she doesn't want to go in.

Speaking to her, she seems to be having trouble relating to child X in her class. Although child X is apparently not being mean to her, or hurting her, she is being mean to another child in the class and is perhaps also a bit disruptive more generally as well, and it sounds like this is an ongoing issue.

Just wondering if anyone has tips on improving resilience? I think she knows to stand up for her friend, and will tell the teacher when things happen, but i think she's worrying about this situation which isn't in her control. Im not really sure how to help. Any ideas welcome, thanks!
