Could you go and discuss the matter with the head / head of year / tutor?

There should be a member of staff at the school whose role includes dealing with this sort of stuff (Pastoral support / SENCO-Special needs co-ordinator) - ring up & ask who this is & can you have a chat with them. They will be able to give you some advice about the steps can be taken & what both you & the school can do to help.
Th school should also have policies & procedres in place to deal with bullying. Hope you get it sorted out

Please look at
\link{http://www.education-otherwise.org/Education Otherwise}and contact them for information and advice. In your position I would get my children out of that school. It doesn't sound a safe place for them to be.
You can also ask for opinions on
EO at yahoo
Post what you have put here and you will receive plenty of advice from people who have been in a similar postion.

Have confidence in yourself. You say you know nothing but you will find that you know a lot more than you think and you can also learn alongside your daughters. Please look at the links I've given where there are people who can give you the information you need much better than I can.
