BBC's performance

Live arts and performance, as well as commentary and discussion on them, are distinctive parts of the BBC offer. Picture shows crowd at Scotland's T in the Park festival.

Monitoring the BBC's performance is a key role of the Trust. We do this in several ways. We assess how well it is delivering the public purposes set out in the Royal Charter and how it is performing against strategic objectives. We monitor performance of the 28 services – TV, radio and online – and the BBC's editorial standards. We scrutinise finance and value for money and fair trading compliance.
