I don't think we can stop bully.....just not school anywhere we can see bully, at work, with mum friends....
It's very important that to teach own children not do bullying people and also we have to children how you will get bullying.

My husband and I are always teaching our children when you get bullying how you act. When you see bullying, what you do.

I believe Bullies should be suspended or be isolated and sit away from the other children during class, and, during any break time they again should be kept in a space away from other children. Irrespective of age it is a very sad state of affairs and in many cases the Bully needs to be counselled....there is usually a reason why they behave the way they do, once the problem is addressed and dealt with in a satisfactory way the situation should improve...if not then they need to go to a special school or facility that deals with kids with serious social issues for full on psychological work up and then work on trying to reintegrate them into a normal society.

As a current student in a secondary college, I have witnessed many students being bullied by not only people they do not know, especially the older kids, but also their friends. As for myself, I have also experienced what it was like to be bullied and have been able to stop it from happening again.
Sometimes, it is better if your kids went to the same school so they can look out for each other. However, it depends on the close relationship your children have. When I started high school, I had the protection of my older sister and brother looking out for me. Because everyone knew that I had an older sister and brother, I felt safe and I also gained friends naturally.
Another thing would be friends. Friends that they've had for a long time would help them, as a bully would hardly conront those in groups. Having friends helps them feel comfortable and secure in school.
If your child still feels bullied at school, than I would suggest talking to them and asking why and how they are getting bullied. Obviously, it will take time for them to tell you, but its better to talk to them because you never know if they wanted someone to talk to.
Other measures include talking to their close friends, teachers and sometimes closely observe them when they are by themselves at home.
Although there are more measures that you can take, I hope this little comment will help with your problem.

I believe most bullies learn from the home or lack of a home. All people should be brought into the conversation. Counsellors, parents, schools, police (if necessary) bullies and the bullied. People can turn a blind eye so as not to deal with this.

My thoughts of these bullies are, that they are cowards, and use this source to stay anonymous.
My grandson has a problem that he would like to see a councillor about, but is scared that other children will post things in facebook like they have done to others.
This beats the point of try to receive help when they really need it.
these bullies need to be named and shamed to everyone, not just their school colleagues.
