have you tried taking her to see a child psychologist or similar. Some kids find someone else to talk to much easier than there mum?
It also depends what the problem is at school, she could find another nasty so and so at a different school.
I was having problems with a couple of girls when I was in grade 3. My mum moved both my brother and I to a Christian school, I made the best friends there and it was the best thing she ever done. It was a much smaller school so everyone knew everyone and there were no Popular kid groups vs Nerd groups kind of thing going on. I loved going to school. I made a lifetime of friends there! We were not religious at all, and there was only one subject that involved Christians etc, the rest was just like a normal school! Maybe ask what she'd like to do? Maybe she has a different school in mind? :)
Insist on a meeting with the principal and the other girls mum. I hate bullying, poor little thing :(
Make an appointment with the school councilor. Straight away. Poor thing. I know how you feel. X
