We propose MIPS 24 micron photometry of 4C radio sources at high redshift (1.5 < z < 3.5). This redshift range exceeds that covered by the 3CR sources. The combination of 3CR and 4C samples will permit us to study the most powerful radio sources over the full redshift range encompassing the cosmic epoch, where the star formation activity peaks. The sample is largely complete consisting of radio galaxies and both extended and compact steep-spectrum quasars. The sources are selected by their isotropic 178 MHz emission from the radio lobes making the sample suitable for testing the unified scheme and for separating orientation-dependent effects from both lobe and starburst evolution. We plan to complement our Spitzer 24 micron photometry with sensitive Herschel observations at 70-490 micron. The combination of Spitzer and Herschel data will permit us to explore the entire rest frame Mid- to Far-IR SEDs and to assess the AGN and star forming luminosity output during this early active phase of the universe.
