CTS 6 requirements for C and P programs i
Relevant section of the CTS CTS 6 Criteria of suitability for children
C and P classification is based on criteria contained in the CTS and ACS. The ACS includes specific criteria that a C, P or C Drama program must meet in order to qualify as an Australian program. To be eligible for C or P classification, all program applications for Provisional or full C or P categories must meet each criterion set out at CTS 6. CTS 6 states that a children’s program is one which: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e)
is made specifically for children or groups of children; and is entertaining; and is well produced using sufficient resources to ensure a high standard of script, cast, direction, editing, shooting, sound and other production elements; and enhances a child’s understanding and experience; and is appropriate for Australian children.
These criteria are discussed in detail in the following chapters. The classification of a program under the CTS is valid for five years after the date on which it was given or last renewed.
