The New Worst Witch was a British CITV television series about a group of young witches at a Witch Academy. It ran for two seasons from 2005-2006. The series was a spinoff from The Worst Witch which ran from 1998 to 2001. During November 2009, CITV showed all episodes of The New Worst Witch. The plot is in fact very similar to the worst witch although the personalities of the characters have been changed slightly.
