What can you possibly do to prevent your schoolmates from bullying?

The simplest solution is to report the bullying to the school. The school owes a duty of care towards its students and must act to stop and prevent bullying. If they fail to take action to prevent or stop the bullying they are in breach of that duty and would be liable for damages. Remember that bullying is not only physical but can also be psychological. Physical injuries heal, psychological injuries do not. Do not allow them to continue, it is probable that you are not their only victim. Take a stand. Do not ignore it. All that will result from ignoring them is the level of the violence will escalate (violence can be psychological as well as physical) until they get a response. Report them and get them dealt with.
