Accessibility Statement

Lime Wood Primary School is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying relevant accessibility standards in line with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2.

 

This accessibility statement applies to https://www.limewoodprimaryschool.co.uk.

 

Compliance Status

Despite the partial exemption for schools, we strive to ensure our website conforms to WCAG 2.2 accessibility standards. This means that our website aims to be:

  • Perceivable: Information and user interface components are presented in ways that users can perceive.
  • Operable: User interface components and navigation are operable.
  • Understandable: Information and the operation of the user interface are understandable.
  • Robust: Content is robust enough to be interpreted by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies.
     

Measures Taken to Improve Accessibility

To enhance accessibility, our website features:

  • Clear Navigation: Consistent and intuitive navigation menus to help users find information easily.
  • Alternative Text for Images: Descriptive alt text for images to assist users utilising screen readers.
  • Accessible PDFs: Efforts to ensure that downloadable PDF documents are accessible, including the use of proper headings and tags.
  • Keyboard Accessibility: Design that allows users to navigate the website using a keyboard alone.
     

AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.

 

Non-Accessible Content

Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility, some content may not yet be fully accessible. This may include:

  • Third-Party Content: Embedded content or links to external websites that we do not control may not meet accessibility standards.
  • Archived Documents: Older PDF documents and other files that may not be fully accessible to assistive technologies.
  • Colour Contrast: Some text and background colour combinations may affect readability for some users.
