Accessibility statement

How we make this website work for everyone, and how to tell us if it doesn’t.

We want every parent and carer to be able to use this website. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA.

What we have done

Plain English and clear headings on every page.
Text and colours with strong contrast. Every text colour passes at least 4.5:1, following our Colour and Type guide. Gold is never used for text on white or cream.
Colour is never the only way we show meaning. Chosen options also show a tick.
Everything works with a keyboard, with a clear focus outline.
Labels on every form field, and text descriptions for images.
Movement is gentle, and stops if your device is set to reduce motion.
You can zoom text up to 200% without losing content.
Buttons and links are large enough to tap.

Press the Accessibility button on any page. On a computer it is at the bottom left. On a phone it is at the top, next to the menu. You can:

Listen: have the page read aloud, then pause or stop at any time. We use the most natural British voice on your device. Press Try another voice to change it, and choose slower, normal or faster speech.
Text size: make everything larger or largest.
High contrast: darker text, underlined links and stronger outlines.
Easy-read text: a clearer font with more space between letters, words and lines. This can help some people with dyslexia.
Stop movement: turn off every animation.

Your choices are saved on your device, so they stay as you move around the site.

Our films have subtitles on screen and a written transcript underneath.

[To be tested with assistive technology before launch]
