You want a school podcast, but don’t know where to start.
How do I create a strategy plan for my school podcast. Many well-intentioned podcasting initiatives falter or fail entirely because they are launched into a "strategy vacuum."
The technical gauntlet - how to achieve the right balance between achieving acceptable audio quality and managing the cost, complexity and learning curve of the required technology (microphones headphones, audio interface and recording space set-up)
The software learning curve - how to choose a software that can maximise the available time and technical proficiency of the students and faculty who will be using it.
The production workflow: From recording to release - how do I create a successful and sustainable podcasting program to ensure that each episode is produced efficiently and to a consistent standard of quality.
The compliance minefield: Navigating legal and ethical obligations. For any organisation, launching a public-facing media platform carries inherent legal risks. For a school, these risks are magnified and multiplied by a unique set of obligations related to student privacy, intellectual property, and institutional liability.
The sustainability question: committing resources for the long haul: How do we build a stable framework that allows student creativity to flourish without being crushed by logistical complexities.
The challenge of building and engaging an audience. A podcast without a deliberate and integrated strategy for audience growth and engagement will fail to achieve its strategic objectives, whether they be marketing, community building, or educational outreach.

We can help you get started
We understand that for a school, launching a podcast is an exciting prospect.
The initial enthusiasm often meets logistical challenges. It's a daunting task that frequently falls on the shoulders of an already overstretched teacher. The podcast is another thing on an already extensive to-do list.
We help you build and sustain your podcasting momentum.
With years of experience working directly with educators , we purpose-built our online course to meet the challenges you face. Building on our decades long experience of recording and podcasting we have distilled this complex process into a manageable, step-by-step framework designed for the school environment. Our curriculum demystifies the technology with cost-conscious recommendations, provides templates for content planning to ensure long-term consistency, and includes vital resources.
This process has successfully worked for schools throughout Ireland and we are confident that it will work for you. We've built the structured, supportive path needed to help you realise this wonderful podcasting opportunity for your students.
Introduce students to interesting guests, diverse view points and compelling life stories.
