EXCLUSIVE: Another round of layoffs has hit the BBC Children’s & Education department after a revamp to production of the CBBC Studio.

A consultation in Salford’s Media City has started and 11 roles are set to be closed after a decision was made to outsource the presentation links between shows on the popular kids channel, we are told.

These presentation links used to take place in the iconic Broom Cupboard but are now done in the CBBC Studio, as channel favorites like Hacker T Dog announce shows and take part in mini skits.

Production on the CBeebies presentation links, including the famous Bedtime Stories, will remain the same. The move is the second phase of a set of changes brought in last year following an 18-month structural review into BBC Children’s, the first of which saw around 25 leave the department and was revealed by Deadline in February 2023.
