The episodes are indeed all "one-ers" as they call them. Each episode was rehearsed for two weeks before they shot it in a single take. I don't believe any trickery was used to hide edits.
The director has worked before with actor/creator Stephen Graham, in this style on the movie Boiling Point, set behind the scenes at a restaurant. That too was a single take. (The spin-off TV series did not use the same technique). That all said, I've still to watch Adolescence, although writer/co-creator Jack Thorne has an incredible resume, including everything from Toxic Town on Netflix to the Harry Potter stage show.
