School FM – Radio Training

We have a number of courses aimed specifically at School students.

The Radio Presentation and Production modules will show students how to produce and present radio shows for an internet, community and commercial radio. Even if you have never presented a programme before you’ll find the course fun and informative and full of hands on experience.

You will learn how to:

  • Record, edit and produce audio for radio
  • Develop and use radio presentation skills
  • Develop and use radio news research skills
  • Develop and use radio production assistant skills

The course uses industry standard hardware and software and was developed in conjunction with the hugely successful Christmas FM.
Your tutors on the school radio course have industry experience and qualifications.

What Your Students Will Gain From School Radio Training:

  • Build confidence and self esteem.
  • Improved speaking and listening skills.
  • Learn to write creative scripts and copy.
  • Conduct research into a range of topics.
  • Work as a team.
  • Understand the value of communication.
