Radio for Education

Education radio built around student voice.

Create a campus, school or college radio station where students can learn, broadcast, collaborate and connect with their wider community.

Discuss Project Start Free Trial

Give students a voice without adding technical complexity.

A radio station can give students a practical way to build confidence, learn media skills and contribute to campus life. But setting one up should not mean managing complex equipment, local servers or hard-to-maintain broadcast software.

Radio.co helps schools, colleges and universities run live and scheduled radio from one place, giving students and staff the tools to create shows, share updates and connect with their community.

Hands-on learning

Support media, journalism, music, production and communication skills through practical broadcasting.

Student-led programming

Give students a creative outlet for shows, interviews, event coverage and campus conversations.

Campus and community connection

Share updates, live events and student work with parents, alumni, prospective students and local listeners.

Radio for everyone

Make learning easier to hear.

Radio gives students a real audience and a reason to work together. Use your station to support coursework, extracurricular projects, live events and community updates, while giving students experience they can take beyond the classroom.

One station, three straightforward education workflows.

Use Radio.co to manage student shows, campus updates and community-facing listening from one central dashboard.

Broadcast live, then make it available again.

Students and staff can go live for shows, interviews, sports commentary, open days or campus events. After the live broadcast, recordings can be reused as scheduled content or shared with listeners who missed it.

Build a weekly schedule students can manage.

Create a timetable of student shows, music blocks, news updates, society features and staff-led programming. Keep the station active throughout the week without needing every slot to be broadcast live.

Reach listeners across campus and beyond.

Make your station available through your website, student portal, mobile app, listening links or smart speakers, so students, staff, parents and alumni can tune in wherever they are.

Do students need technical experience to take part?

No. Students can be given access to the parts of the station they need, such as uploading content, building shows or broadcasting live. Staff can keep control of wider station settings and permissions.

Can we use the station for coursework or extracurricular activity?

Yes. A station can support media, journalism, music, production, communication and creative projects, as well as clubs, societies and student-led programming.

Can parents, alumni or the local community listen?

Yes. Your station can be shared through an embedded web player, direct listening link, mobile app or other public-facing channels, depending on how open you want the station to be.

How should we handle content rights and licensing?

Our Solutions team will review your setup, understand what content you plan to use, and connect you with the right licensing support or partners to get everything in place.
