Another testimonial below from a rising radio DJ about our National Broadcasting School.

Brett Whitakker discovered that he really was as good as he thought as a radio DJ. His presenting skills are superb. He had intensive broadcast training with Rod Lucas and is able to show exactly how good at radio presenting he really is via his radio showreel. Trainer Rod Lucas says, “Brett is a gifted radio dj presenter. I sincerely expect his natural radio talent to be taken up soon. He’s a great DJ Radio presenter.”

"Recently I spent 3 incredible Days with the Radio School, that took me from a novice with enthusiasm to a professional with passion, the 1 to 1 tutoring I received challenged me and made me much more aware of the environment in which I will be working. The Radio School made no secret of the fact that it is a hard industry to get into let alone be successful in but I am better equipped to follow my ambitions, I thank Rod Lucas for being honest and frank and am lucky that I have found a new friend and mentor supporting me in my radio career". Brett Whittaker is now presenting the Breakfast Show on the new Wayland FM (Norfolk) 107.3.
