The TVI Take

Mildred Hubble accidentally enters a witchcraft academy despite being non-magical. The four-season series treats Mildred's class status, she's the working-class outsider among hereditary witches, as a sustained subject, with Ethel Hallow's bullying tracing class lines rather than being unmotivated meanness.

Educational about how aptitude and effort interact, and the school's matriarchal structure offers a different model than the Hogwarts framework most children's-fantasy adaptations default to.
