Re: Why BBC ?

The BBC spun it out into a separate foundation in 2016, as far as I can tell they only had the project for about a year after launch.

After all the problems and delays involved, the issue of CodeBug, it wouldn't surprise me if the BBC weren't glad to see the back of it. BBC Learning are still providing input into the foundation and the product remains marketed under "BBC" branding.
