Foundation , concealer , long sleeved T-shirt’s .
Who are you trying to hide it from?
Exactly
I'm also tired of being made fun of for having them on my arm
Oh ok, wear long sleeved shirts or jumpers and use makeup and stuff on your arms. If you are really worried you could possibly get skin grafts

Long sleeves and makeup is probably what I'll stick with skin grafts seem like a little much though

I need some help covering up scars on my arms without making it obvious
I wonder whether you would be eligible for the Changing Faces Skin Camouflage Service.
People can register at the moment and then have an appointment when bookings resume, later this year, hopefully.

Long sleeves are the best option. Concealer can help if they are pink/discoloured but it won't hide them completely. Are you getting any help?
No, help it's just me who knows about them
Are these scars a cause for concern or just scars that you're uncomfortable with being exposed?
There's a range missing from the list in the link I gave you and that's Dermablend, which is also good.

It might be worth contacting Vichy (Dermablend) and asking them where your nearest stockist is. You could sample some of the products to see how they work for you.
Do aim to have a professional consultation at some point, though, for the best result.
PS Be sure to talk to your GP about the scarring too. If they are the result of self harm, it's important that you get the specialist help you need to make sure that this isn't something you continue to do.

If my parents found out about them it would definitely raise some concern
