Summary/Abstract: This report deals with specifics of the school radio stations and their online presentation that works in the framework of university radios in the Slovak Republic. Operating of the school radio is a relatively difficult activity that requires an extensive register of competencies and skills – on the side of students and also teachers. We expect, that the absence of these skills and competencies is one of the limiting factors why is this practically oriented form of media education used only a little and deals with some problems. The aim of this study is to find out the current situation of school radios, mainly from a quantitative perspective. In the framework of the Slovak Republic has never been processed a relevant study in this area, which would define the current situation. The study uses the quantitative research strategy and focuses on creating a fundamental statistic database of existing school radios and means of their online presentation. The purpose of the study is to see the strengths and weaknesses of presenting school radios online, to clear limiting factors and also challenges and opportunities for school radio content creators.
