Children bullied at school?

So far thank-goodness my children haven't been bothered by bullies. Our school system here is really quite good and surprisingly we don't really have that problem here. The schools have regular student meetings where they discuss alot of different topics with the children and bullying is one of them. If it does ever happen I would go straight to the school. Nip it in the bud so to speak. Stop it before it gets out of hand.
