The official synopsis of Heartbreak High reads:
Heartbreak High is a high-octane ride into the minds and lives of a group of Australian teenagers. The discovery of a secret map that charts all the hook-ups in the school year makes its architect, AMERIE (16, rebel, loudmouth – THE HEART), an instant pariah. In an effort to set the hypersexual students straight, the school forces them into a Sexual Literacy Program. With her new friends, outsiders, QUINNI (neuro-divergent truth bomb – THE BRAINS) and DARREN (ambitious, super-dooper gay – THE CLITORIS), Amerie must repair her reputation, whilst navigating love, sex, and heartbreak.
Ayesha Madon, who plays Amerie, starred in The Moth Effects and Fangirls. The series will consist of 8 episodes. The filming commenced in November 2021. The original Heartbreak High was also set in Hartley High School.
