Tony is very proud of his work on VIBE. He is the station manager of Vibe Radio, based in Victoria Education Centre in Poole, Dorset. The school caters for students with severe physical and learning disabilities from ages three to nineteen. Tony oversees the day-to-day operation of the radio station and assists the students to produce and present their own shows.
The students present shows, make jingles, quizzes, news and weather reports, prepare fact files inspired by their current school projects. They recite poetry, perform drama, make music and conduct interviews. It broadcasts in house, but selected shows can be listened to on the Mixcloud. Please head to the VIBE Radio Mixcloud Page to check out some of the students and Tony’s work.
The radio station is a great medium for them to gain confidence, promotes inclusion, reinforces learning and encourages them to have fun and enjoyment together.
