Accessibility

Our Commitment

This website is intended to be usable by everyone, including people who navigate with a keyboard, use a screen reader or magnification, need larger text, prefer reduced motion, or have difficulty distinguishing colors.

The site has been built to target the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2, level AA. Accessibility is treated as part of building each page rather than as a later addition.

Meeting a standard is not the same as being usable in practice. If something on this site gets in your way, please tell us so it can be fixed.

Semantic headings

Every page has one main heading and a logical heading order beneath it, so you can navigate by headings and understand the structure without seeing the layout.

Keyboard navigation

Every link, button, menu, and form control can be reached and operated with the keyboard alone. The mobile menu closes with the Escape key and returns focus to the button that opened it.

Skip to main content

The first item you reach with the Tab key is a link that jumps past the header and menu straight to the page content.

Alternative text

Images that carry meaning have text descriptions. Images that are purely decorative are marked so that screen readers skip them instead of announcing clutter.

Captions and transcripts

Any video or audio published on this site will carry captions and a text transcript. There is currently no audio or video on the site.

Color contrast

Text and interface colors are chosen to meet the contrast levels in WCAG 2.2 AA against their backgrounds.

Never color alone

Where something is signalled by color, such as a correct or incorrect quiz answer, a word or symbol says the same thing.

Responsive design

Pages reflow to fit the screen from 320 pixels wide upward without side-to-side scrolling, and text can be enlarged without content being lost.

Descriptive links

Link text describes where the link goes. Links that open in a new tab say so, and external links are labelled as external.

Accessible forms

Every field has a visible label. Instructions sit next to the field they belong to, and error and result messages are announced rather than only shown.

Reduced motion

If your device is set to reduce motion, transitions and smooth scrolling are switched off. There is no autoplaying audio or video, and no flashing content.

Printable activities

The learning worksheets are designed to print cleanly, with writing lines in place of text boxes, for anyone who prefers to work on paper.

Known Limitations

Being honest about gaps is more useful than claiming none exist.

The interactive quiz needs JavaScript to score answers automatically. When JavaScript is unavailable, the questions and a full answer key are still readable on the page.
The contact form is deliberately disabled until an approved form service has been connected, so it cannot currently be used to reach us. Use the contact details on the contact page instead.
Some content on the site is still marked as awaiting verified information. Those sections are placeholders rather than finished content.
