Channel 4 & 4Learning Continuity 23rd/24th January 2001 - Includes continuity leading in and out of: Kumbh Mela: The Greatest Show On Earth Powerhouse 4Learning: Worlds Of Faith The Time Of My Life (Teacher's info ...

After the re-structuring of Channel 4 in 1993, ITV's obligations to provide educational programming on Channel 4's airtime passed to Channel 4 itself, and the new service became ‘Channel 4 Schools’, with the new corporation administering the service and commissioning its programmes, some still from ITV, others from independent production.

In 2000, the service was renamed 4Learning and in April 2007, the commercial arm and rights exploitation of its programmes and support materials was sold to Espresso Education and renamed Channel 4 Learning. Information on the acquisition can be found on Espresso’s website and in a Guardian article.

Channel 4 Learning continues to market and sell video-rich resources (DVDs, CD-ROMs) sourced from Channel 4 television programmes to schools across the United Kingdom, mainly through its catalogue and online shop.

Channel 4 Learning is a part of Espresso Group.
