Organic Numbers Website Accessibility Policy
This is the official accessibility statement for the Organic Numbers group of websites.
Usability
To make the site as usable as we can, we have introduced a number of features that
will make it easier for you to find your way around:
- Breadcrumb trails - Always know where in the structure of the website the page you
are looking at is located.
- Consistent and meaningful document titles.
- Consistent presentation - The site is "built" from a number of templates,
offering consistency as you use the site.
Accessibility
In order to ensure the information presented to the public and our students is accessible,
we try to make sure of the following:
- All content images used in this site include descriptive ALT attributes. Purely
decorative graphics include null ALT attributes.
- Tables are used purely for presenting data, not for formatting content. Where they
are used, Captions and Column Headers are included.
- Wherever possible we will provide documents in an HTML format for viewing online
with web browsers or using assistive technologies such as screen readers.
Visual design
This site uses cascading style sheets for visual layout. This offers benefits in
terms of accessibility, although the differing manner in which web browsers interpret
style sheets may lead to some minor formatting errors. If your browser or browsing
device does not support stylesheets at all, the content of each page should still
readable.
This site uses only relative font sizes, which means you are able to alter the font
sizes to suit your preference (for example, Internet Explorer users can alter their
text size by going to the Text menu).
Web Browsers
This website was developed and tested satisfactorily using the following web browsers:
Standards
We strive to meet, and where possible exceed, the
Priority 2 (WAI AA) standards guidelines set out under the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative.
