CBBC young adult series about autistic girls. Watched first episode - not at all bad.

Also watching it and curious to know what others think. Is it a realistic portrayal of being an autistic teenage girl?

I enjoyed it! Watched it with DD. The 3 sisters are played by autistic actresses.

I've just started. My eldest thinks its "cringe" but youngest likes it.

As for .... classes of 12.... posh buildings.... personal attention from the teacher
What state school is this?!

I've watched the first two episodes, really enjoying it. Much better than atypical which I just found too cliche'd. Sad it's too old for DD although I'd suspected it would be.

No but I'm going to suggest it to DD. Thank you

My teen dd thinks this one is too clichéd! But I'm enjoying them going through the motions. I'm only 3 episodes in though. How many are there?

I do some autism training and will recommend it of others like it!
