Our aim
We design and build the website to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 level AA. This is the target we work to, not a certification or a claim of full compliance.
What you can do on this website
You can move through every page, menu and form with a keyboard and see where you are; zoom pages to 200% without content being cut off; turn off animation by choosing reduced motion on your device; switch between Traditional Chinese, English and Simplified Chinese and stay on the same page; and watch videos with captions and a full transcript.
How we test
We check every type of page with automated tools and by hand with a keyboard, at desktop and mobile widths, in all three languages. Testing so far has used the Chromium browser; we have not yet completed full testing with screen readers on Windows or mobile devices.
Known limitations
Some PDF documents are not fully tagged for accessibility; ask us for another format if you need one. The district diagram on the campus pages is illustrative, and every campus is also listed in text. Site search does not convert between Traditional and Simplified Chinese characters.
Report a problem or ask for another format
If something on the website is hard to use, or you need information in another format, use the contact form, choose “Student support” and tell us which page you were on and what happened. We will reply within five working days.
We review this statement after every major change to the website.
