Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
Sometimes kids refuse to go to school at this age.
There could be multiple reasons including problems at school, home, problem with teachers or her friends.
My tips
1. Talk to her in detail. You can start by having conversation while taking her to her favourite play area or movie or cartoon show.
2. Talk to her teachers about her behaviour amd attention in class and the way she socialises with others.
3. Talk to her friends at school too.
I do hope you find issues leading to school avoidance soon.
Give time.
If necessary take a short trip or break to change environment.
Wishing your daughter good health
Regards
Dr Arun

Detailed Answer:
You need to talk to your daughter like i suggested before.
If nothing helps, yes you need to consult child psychiatrist with both the parents and your child.
Proper counselling by an experienced psychiatrist will definitely do the trick.
