I'm sorry to hear that you've been dealing with consistent bullying from a group of boys in school for a year. It's important to remember that you do not deserve to be treated poorly and that it is not your fault.

Consider involving law enforcement: If the bullying is severe and involves physical violence or threats, consider involving law enforcement.

Document the bullying: Keep a record of the incidents, including dates, times, and what happened. This can be helpful if you decide to report the bullying to the school or authorities.

Reach out to someone you trust: This could be a family member, a friend, a school counselor, or a teacher. Let them know what has been going on and how it's been affecting you. They may be able to provide additional support and guidance on how to handle the situation.

Report the bullying: Talk to a teacher, school counselor, or principal about what's been happening. They have a responsibility to take action to stop the bullying. It may also be helpful to report the bullying to your school's anonymous reporting system, if available. Your post suggest you might have done so. Report it to the police as soon as possible. The school will be held accountable for failing in their duty of care.
