    Try to meet or speak with the playschool teacher, when your daughter is not there, to try to come up with a plan. Perhaps preschool teacher could entice her under the pretext of giving her a special job to do. The most important thing is not to start going to school and bringing her away again. Reassure your daughter that she'll be collected later and perhaps you could arrange to do something nice either then or later in the week, as a treat.

    Were you at home with her last week?Perhaps she has decided she liked it :) How does the panic manifest itself?Does she settle after you leave?

    Hi all thanks for the help.. yeah I was home with her and that's it she's spoilt from the attention! But she really won't settle as she starts getting into fits with her crying. Hopefully better tomorrow :)

    Sometimes it helps if the child thinks you are doing something boring at home. It might help to give her a little token to "mind" so she can touch that at school and know you will be coming back to get her!Hope all went ok today.
