School shoes question

Hi, I hope this is the right place to ask..

I would be really grateful if anyone could advise me on school shoes for my DD, She starts high school next month so is becoming more aware of styles that she is into. she had DCD (dyspraxia) so wants to avoid shoe laces.

Her school won't allow ballet flats, but we would avoid anyway as she has hypermobile ankles and flat feet so needs a bit of support. She also has SPD so some textures don't work for her either.

I realise that we have left it a bit late to sort out.. There are lots of reasons for this but mostly to do with an injury that has stopped her trying on shoes.

Any advice would be appreciated by me and DD, thank you Smile

So.. We got some shoes finally!

Thank you all for the brilliant ideas on this thread.

Now we just have to cope with the apprehension of a brand new school on Monday!
