麻豆官网首页入口

锘縏he Trust reviewed the 麻豆官网首页入口 services specifically targeted at young people - 麻豆官网首页入口 Three, Radio 1 and Radio 1Xtra, and looked at how well the 麻豆官网首页入口 serves younger audiences across all of its TV, radio, and online services.

The review also included other content for younger audiences, such as 麻豆官网首页入口 Switch and the formal learning provision like 麻豆官网首页入口 Bitesize.

麻豆官网首页入口 Trustee Alison Hastings, who led the review said:

"Young audiences are one of the hardest groups to reach. Our review shows that 麻豆官网首页入口 Three, Radio 1 and 1Xtra are doing a particularly good job in serving young people. 麻豆官网首页入口 Three's strong reputation for comedy, Radio 1's promotion of new UK music and ability to reach a large number of young people with its news bulletins, and 1Xtra's support for music not heard elsewhere are all strong achievements.

"Although the 麻豆官网首页入口 is doing well, there are areas where more can be done, for example through more ambitious speech output on Radio 1, continuing development of 麻豆官网首页入口 Three's online activities and encouraging young people to access 麻豆官网首页入口 news in ways that suit them. We will now look to 麻豆官网首页入口 management to build on the good work they have in place."

锘縏he review's findings and the Trust's actions

Overall performance on all 麻豆官网首页入口 services

The 麻豆官网首页入口 serves young people well. Nine out of ten young people use 麻豆官网首页入口 services every week, and the 麻豆官网首页入口 as a whole provides a good range of high quality content for this group. 麻豆官网首页入口 One remains the most viewed service in the UK amongst young people, the 麻豆官网首页入口's formal learning output is extremely popular and 麻豆官网首页入口 Switch is serving young teenagers well, especially on radio and online.

However the 麻豆官网首页入口 faces growing challenges in engaging young people with its news provision and reaching teenagers on television. These are areas in which we will be monitoring the 麻豆官网首页入口's action in the future. And while we have not considered editorial matters in this review, we are very clear that while content can be tailored in tone, subject nature and presentation, to suit younger people it must always conform to the 麻豆官网首页入口's editorial guidelines.

麻豆官网首页入口 Three

The Trust found that 麻豆官网首页入口 Three has become increasingly effective at reaching its target audience. The evidence shows that the quality and range of the channel's output is good overall, and we are supportive of its strong track record in taking creative risks and using new on-air talent.

The Trust believes that 麻豆官网首页入口 Three's focus should remain on UK originations, and as part of this we support 麻豆官网首页入口 management's aim to offer a full range of programming on the channel. However, awareness and usage of 麻豆官网首页入口 Three's online activities is low, and we believe the service can achieve more in this area.

We will amend parts of the channel's service licence to set a clearer framework for how the channel should deliver public value to young people. In addition we have identified some wider issues about for all 麻豆官网首页入口 television channels, such as reach in ethnic minority homes, which will be addressed in the review of other 麻豆官网首页入口 channels, to start later this year.

麻豆官网首页入口 Radio 1

The Trust found that Radio 1 reaches a large number of young people and is highly effective at promoting some of the 麻豆官网首页入口's public purposes. Its news reaches a very large young audience, and it plays an important part in promoting new music artists in the UK.

However we believe the station should renew its focus on serving the younger age elements of its target audience, where reach is declining. We will be monitoring its reach to the 15-29 year target audience closely in the coming years. We also believe that Radio 1 has the potential to deliver some further public value through its speech output, given the strength of its market position.

麻豆官网首页入口 Radio 1Xtra

The Trust found that Radio 1Xtra is a growing service, although digital-only distribution has limited the size of its audience. However listeners are positive about its output, particularly its music.

The Trust has approved two changes to the service in order to allow it to offer greater public value. These are defining the window for playing new British music in order to help the station increase its support for emerging artists and making changes to its news output so that it can increase the reach of its news, and better meet the needs of listeners.

锘縏he review began in September 2008 and included a twelve week consultation with licence fee payers. This was promoted on the services themselves and elsewhere. The consultation received over 9000 responses from the public; this is the largest response the Trust has had to one of its service reviews.

The Trust also drew on a range of audience research and held meetings with young people at a series of events in conjunction with the British Youth Council.

For the purpose of the review younger audiences were defined as 13-34 year olds. The Trust's previous review of children's services considered all services for those 13 and under and 34 is the top end of target audience for 麻豆官网首页入口 Three.
