Bullying?

DS2 aged 12 is bng picks on by 2 boys at school. They're bing ridiculous calling him "posh" and saying he's got grey hair 
It's happened quite a few times and he says that he sticks up for himself but they don't stop.
He, and I, know both boys and their families (we live in a very small place).
I hate seeing him upset and feel really angry at the 2 boys.....not sure it's worth doing anything yet. He's said he DEFINITELY doesn't want me telling the school.
Will it blow over? I really feel for him and want it to stop but I know t doesn't work like that!

So sorry your son is being bullied. I've got no advice sorry, just didn't want you to go unanswered

Thanks Jilted
He seemed a lot more upbeat this morning......DH seems to it's nothing to worry about (as things stand) and that it's just boys' banter.
He's given DS2 some ideas about how to answer back to the boys.
We shall see after school today......I'm dreading it, I'm starting a new job tomorrow and could do without the extra worry!

Hopefully he'll feel a bit better.
Hope your new job is going well too

They may well doing it for a reaction in which case answering back etc could cause them to continue.
You or he needs to talk to school.

Everything ok today.
Wolfie when I suggested that I talk to the school yesterday he was adamant that I wasn't to do this.

If it’s the odd comment he’s happy to shrug off then fine. If it’s making him unhappy it needs to be dealt with. A good school won’t say who reported it.
