Started new school last week. On the second day he spent entire lunchtime alone, looking for some classmates, tried to join one game but leader of 'the gang' (from another class) said he couldn't and carried on wandering around. Nearly missed dinner as the class went without him, and only when asked dinner lady she said they had gone ages ago! Asked him if I could talk to teacher about this, but he said no, he doesn't want anyone to get into trouble because of him. He is very anxious about being lonely and bullied.
He is on SN register, not fully established his issues - but definitely struggles socially and with confidence/ anxiety, so it's not easy for him to break into established groups. Would just like some advice on how to help him. What I could do, or ask the school to do? If anyone has moved and something really helped your child.
My Y2 twins are fine, which is partly as they're younger and partly that they have no issues to contend with.
