This Provocations article reviews some key moments in the history of Children's BBC, now, since 2019, combined with Education. It refers to important and occasionally controversial programmes, such as Grange Hill, Newsround and Horrible Histories and draws on recent interviews with former head of Children's, Anna Home, current head of Children's In-house Production, Helen Bullough, and former head of Children's Digital, and Director of the campaigning group Children's Media Foundation, Greg Childs. All are asked why children's programming matters and the article discusses their answers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
