Struggling with friendships

My child has always had a handful of friends but never a 'best friend'. Always been the child that gets left out and never invited to events, parties etc. School says not even an issue and everyone likes my child. Lately my childs 'friends' have not even wanted to play with them at school or out of, which is causing them to cry everyday. My child is always the one to be on their own, and always seems second best. We have been told our child is caring, nice, polite and knows right from wrong. Is it just kids been kids and mean or do we need to do something and step in. Me and hubby work full time so only do pick up twice a week so do feel it might be down to us not being around and people thinking we're too busy, some of the parents at school seem to be in 'clicky' groups.

Can you invite one friend for tea on the nights you do the pickups?
