Teachers' TV has lodged a complaint with Ofcom over Sky's plan to change its genre in the EPG from "documentaries" to "specialist."
Sky is planning to rearrange its EPG on February 28, moving some channels from one genre to another and adding a number of new sub-genres.
Broadcast reports that in its complaint to Ofcom, the channel claims that if Sky were to move its position in the EPG, it would be breaching its EPG Code obligations.
The trade publication quotes a Sky spokesman as saying that the company is "confident that [it has] fulfilled all regulatory obligations in respect of Teachers' TV."
