I am reluctant to do that right off the back as dd has got some connections there, and really likes some kids in other classes (perhaps we can find a place in one of those?)
As long as there are kids that your quiet, private sweetiepie likes somewhere in the building, I would fight to get her sitting next to them. As you say, you can always pull the plug, but why wouldn't a Principal want to give a kid an appropriate education? Of course meet with the teacher so that you can appropriately move up the chain, and document all you emails cc the Princ at this point.

If you daughter likes these kids, there is a good chance that they are 'close enough' to her learning readiness level.

Best Wishes,
