I have been put into an English class which I don't feel comfortable in, been the victim of some minor bullying, and I'm finding the work relatively easy. My mum has already contacted the school and they said they would sort it (and didn't) any tips on what to do next or who I should talk to? Thanks

I'm sorry - how horrible for you! The usual chain of command is the instructor (unless the instructor is the one bullying you), the department chair, your academic advisor, the associate dean for undergraduate students, and finally the dean, if none of those work. For an end run on some of this (but you still need to talk to one or more or the first three), is there an ombudsperson at your school? This is someone, usually a student, whose job it is to try to help students get problems sorted out.
If you are in your first year, realize that you may have some classes that are relatively easy and others which are relatively hard at first - that just means that you had a better-than-average English class at your high school. The bullying, though, is inexcusable.

try to talk to the head of the department and tell them your own concerns and see what that brings up, then get your mum to call in again, maybe this time in person, the thing with teachers they constantly need reming of what they must do otherwise they forget as they have much to do already.

talk to the teachers yourself or organise a meeting with ur parents its best if you talk to them as they know what ur on about and show why you find the class uncomfortable to sit in as the stupid bullies are in your way if you have a friend who is in a oppersite situation

You need to take the matter into your own hands. Tell the head teacher or your English teacher and if they do nothing again then they are legally liable to be sued.

Write a letter of complaint to the chairman of the governors at your school, the school will give you his/her details. If you get no answer from this then complain in writing to your local county council.

write fax or mail the education officer in your district , tell him you will take the matter to court and sue him and the council for unnecessary distress caused by the bullying , and also a charge for neglecting your educational needs,

Talk to the head teacher.
If your English teacher isn't helping you, you need to take the issue to the teacher's boss.

I recommend that you pester your school. Keep phoning and asking to be moved.They will eventually give in
