Development
Following the premiere of Get Even on BBC iPlayer in 2020, production on a follow-up series relating to Get Even began a year later. The BBC confirmed that the series, titled Rebel Cheer Squad, would be set in the same school with the students from Get Even having graduated and the DGM being inspirations to the new students at Bannerman School. The BBC hinted that the programme would follow friends and cheerleaders Grace, Clara and Rumi becoming the new DGM to pursue justice for their school, while also "experiencing the twists and turns of teenage life". Bustle noted that some viewers of Get Even were hoping for a continuation of the series, Rebel Cheer Squad would still feature the spirit of its prior series, just via a new generation of students. Like Get Even, the series was filmed at Bolton School, one of the largest private schools in England. Like Get Even, Rebel Cheer Squad is based on one of the books from the Don't Get Mad book series by author Gretchen McNeil. The series is a co-production between the BBC, Netflix and Boat Rocker Studios. The series began airing on CBBC on 14 February 2022, with a simultaneous release of all eight episodes on BBC iPlayer. The series was internationally distributed on Netflix on 29 July 2022. Episodes
