You know there may well be a good reason why these children have been given priority over others, but surely it is up to the teacher to explain this to the other children.
That's what I was badly saying. It's not fair that the other children have no idea why they are left out and without a reason given, they are left to only think they are different in some way.

Oh and I didn't know that it was free or that they needed it less. I was just thinking from my area, where in our case they would need it more. My mistake, sorry.

That's puts a whole new light on it. If the teacher doesn't want to explain to the children for what ever reason why they are class B, then have her explain it to you. You have a right to know and clear up any thoughts in your daughter's mind and yours of why she is class B.
