A national broadcaster brings a full studio to your school. Students plan, record and publish a real podcast — mapped to the new oracy framework, delivered with zero teacher workload.
From 2025, England's curriculum embeds oracy — spoken communication — alongside reading and writing. Every school needs demonstrable speaking provision. PodCLASS delivers it through the medium students already love: podcasting.
The result: structured talk, active listening, teamwork and media literacy — with a real published episode as the evidence.
Working in groups of up to 30, students choose a topic, structure an episode and name their podcast — guided by a national broadcaster.
Multi-track recording in our mobile studio: RØDECaster Pro consoles and RØDE PodMics — the same kit used by professional podcasts.
Students edit in Adobe Audition and publish a real .mp3 episode to your school's own secure area on this site.
Two formats, featuring Goalhanger content. Choose PodCLASS: Curriculum — built around The Rest Is History and mapped to KS3/KS4 humanities — or PodCLASS: Open, where a montage of Goalhanger shows sparks formats the students invent themselves.
