Students from the BTEC Radio Production course at the College have prepared and presented their own shows over the course of two weeks, featuring a range of music, features and chat – all broadcast live.

Radio LaB Coordinator Terry Lee said: “I love listening to the enthusiasm and talent on offer when the Luton Sixth Form College Takeover comes to our station. I’m pleased that Radio LaB can offer these young people a Luton-wide platform to be heard – the students are a real credit to the College and their tutors.”

Wow, is it that of the year already?!

The annual @LutonSixthForm summer takeover of @RadioLaB971fm starts today - it's happening right now, to be precise! - tune in and listen to our radio students broadcasting LIVE for the next fortnight! https://t.co/Ijeav519cz

Luton Sixth Form College radio teacher Andy Waterfield said: “I’m so pleased we’ve been welcomed back to Radio LaB and the University. This really is a highlight of the year, allowing students on the successful BTEC Radio course to make their learning a reality. They always love the fortnight and leave with amazing new experiences and confidence. The chance to work on air, live, is invaluable.”
