Review of services for younger audiences

The Trust reviewed the ±«Óătv services specifically targeted at young people - ±«Óătv Three, Radio 1 and Radio 1Xtra, and looked at how well the ±«Óătv serves younger audiences across all of its TV, radio, and online services.

This included other content for younger audiences, such as ±«Óătv Switch and the formal learning provision like ±«Óătv Bitesize. For the purpose of the review younger audiences were defined as 13-34 year olds.

Together with the final review, supporting evidence and the ±«Óătv Executive's submission to the review can be accessed below.
