Student Andrea Manning
“A bit
like competing as a horse in the Grand National; you charge
full speed ahead, have a few stumbles but make it to the end
in one piece, Rod Lucas cracking the whip and pushing all
the way!! This is tempered with great food, chat and advice
from the library of experience that rocks around in Rod
Lucas. There’s a great buzz to be had and it’s impossible
not to have ‘the bug’ by the end of the course!!” Andrea Manning former
Radio School Student

What students say about our Radio
Presenter Training and how we help get people into real radio jobs.
"I
would happily recommend Rod Lucas and the Radio School. Before
attending a Radio Presenting Training Course with Rod I had no
radio experience. Expect a warm welcome and some intense
training. I left with a demo which as a result I was offered a
full time show within two months on 2 stations. Since then I now present my
own show for one of the largest groups of stations in UK. I
still send air checks to Rod to get some feedback.“
1 day intensive Radio Presenter
training Course is £350 (No Vat). Weekend
Radio Presentation, Production & DJ courses are
also available. For beginners we
recommend 2 & 3 day radio training courses. 2
days £650 & 3 days £950 (No Vat).
Former Radio School
student talks about her radio training and getting a
full time radio slot. "After doing a 3 day
course in January 2009 I presented on a couple of
community radio stations and then joined Bolton FM
doing some weekend programming. In January 2010 I
was asked to co-host the Breakfast programme on the
station. Which I love".
Thank you Rod for all
your help and encouragement at The Radio School. I never thought I
would get this far. Look forward to seeing you again
for some more training. Regards Karen Davey
