Should I change my 8 year old to a different school because she has no friends ?

My daughter has always had issues making and keeping friends. Part of this is my fault because I also have this problem and she has learnt from me. Another part is because she can be quite head strong, opinionated, clumsy, loud at times and I hate to say it but annoying. Don't get me wrong she has many Good qualities but kids don't really seem to care about those at this young age. I'm trying to teach her how to better get along with the kids but it may be to late because she has already been branded the annoying sometimes naughty kid at school.
There is a school which is a 10/15 min drive away from us that I was thinking of putting her into. It is semi rural and has 103 students 5 of which are girls my daughters age. I was thinking of enrolling her to give her a new start but im not sure weather its the right thing to do. She has said that she will just stay at her current school because she is scared she wont make any friends at the new school. Also she has said " So what if I don't have any friends I like being by myself " which absolutely breaks my heart.
My daughter is a beautiful individual and I just want her to have some friends. What would you do ?

It breaks my heart because she does want friends but has now become somewhat defensive. That is why she says things like " I don't care I like playing on my own " . No kid really likes playing on their own. I feel for her because I'm her mum and I can tell she wants the other kids to like her. If I thought for a moment that she was happy being on her own at school I would be overjoyed. Deep down I know it really hurts her feelings and I wonder how this might effect her down the road.

She will be the same person no matter what school she goes to. Keep teaching her how to get along with people, it might seem it's not working but it's better than not teaching her at all.
Have you tried entrolling her in after school or weekend activities where they have to do stuff together like sports or drama or whatever options are out there, ballet or something she likes. She may meet friends that way.

She told you " So what if I don't have any friends I like being by myself ". Why would that break your heart? Any kid who can say that and believe it makes my day.
She sounds like a strong minded kid. Moving her to a smaller school where she's the new kid isn't doing her any favors. Some kids blossom later in life. It sounds like she'll do fine no matter what you think of her social life.
