Hello Jack
I'm glad you wrote to me. It sounds like you’re having a difficult time at school with a particular young person and sometimes a group of young people bully you. It’s important you feel safe at school and are able to enjoy things like eating your lunch without being shouted at or hit.
You’ve tried lots of things, talking to the teacher, talking to the young person themselves but this hasn’t helped end the bullying. You haven’t mentioned talking to anyone you live with about what’s been happening at school. It can be helpful to have someone who will talk to teachers on your behalf and a parent or guardian talking to the school about how you are feeling can make a difference. ChildLine can also talk to a school on your behalf if you feel you don’t have a trusted adult who will support you.
I know you feel you’re running out of ideas and everything you have tried has gone wrong. But you should feel proud that you have tried to help yourself by thinking of ways to stop the bullying and you have also been able to talk about how you’re feeling. I hope this helps you understand the bullying is not your fault and you do need someone else to help stop what’s happening.

Take care,
