    • Trivia
      The similarities between this and the Harry Potter series have been noted for years. Kate Duchene was even offered a part in Harry Potter & The Chamber of Secrets, but turned it down out of loyalty to The Worst Witch franchise.
    • Crazy credits
      The opening credits for the pilot feature a different music track than the other episodes which have the school song as the theme.
    • Connections
      Featured in The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon: Savannah Guthrie and Matt Lauer/Felicity Jones/FKA Twigs (2014)

    Great show for children
    Worst witch is a great show for young people. It's not about "religion" for crazy people who think witchcraft is real, it's just fun. I liked it much and still like it being an adult now. You will see young people with young people's usual problems and solving them by some kind of "magic" which noone ever intended to be understood as real.
