The BBC is looking at launching a dedicated children's radio station – otherwise it faces having to pull out of kids' radio altogether.
The BBC Trust report on BBC Children's services, published today, found that its existing children's radio services offer poor value for money to the licence fee payer.
The corporation spent £1.6m on children's radio programming in the 2007/08 financial year - including a daily slot between 2pm and 5pm on BBC (Radio) 7, and Go4it, a Sunday evening magazine show after The Archers on (BBC) Radio 4.
