Although the GOV UK guidance states that schools are partially exempt from the Websites Accessibility Regulations – the regulations for primary and secondary schools apply only to the content people need in order to use their services, for example a form to request a term time absence – during the design and construction of this school website the following aspects have been considered:
- Carefully selecting fonts, colours and contrasts used for ease of reading;
- Ensuring that the sites are fully responsive and easy to use across all devices;
- Ensuring that all documents are PDFs that can be easily read online and downloaded for offline reading;
- That the site can be navigated using only the keyboard;
- That images are labelled in code to enable identification by screen readers for the visually impaired and search engines.
