Help a child who finds it hard to make friends

Help my child make friends.

Age: [age]
What I see: [details]
School context: [any]
Interests: [list]
What they've said about it: [optional]

Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. Small skills to practise at home.
2. A calm ask for the teacher or school.
3. Low-pressure ways to meet kids (clubs, one-to-one playdates).
4. What not to do (forcing, comparing).
5. When to seek further advice.

Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts, diagnoses or legal outcomes. This is help with wording and planning, not legal, medical or counselling advice; point me to GOV.UK, Citizens Advice, NSPCC (0808 800 5000), Childline (0800 1111), Samaritans (116 123) or Refuge/National Domestic Abuse Helpline (0808 2000 247) where that fits, and call 999 if anyone is in immediate danger.
