Scope

This statement relates to the EDUCATE website at www.educateventures.com, and was prepared in accordance with 

The Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) Accessibility Regulations 2018 No.952

​

Website standards compliance

​Our website is built according to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. (AA standard)

It is designed in line with recognised best practice, and training in creating accessible content is provided to all site owners and editors.

​

We provide tools to enable editors to audit their content, meaning that our website content can be accessed via assistive technologies such as screen readers or text-only browsers.

Content which may not be accessible

​We are continuously working with editors to ensure they produce accessible content. Our site does contain 3rd party content and functionality. We are working with suppliers and our own site owners to ensure that any non-EDUCATE Ventures Research content we publish, or systems we link to, are also compliant. 

​

This however may sometimes be out of our control. Our ambition is to reduce our reliance on non-compliant sites and tools, and we regularly review our supplier relationships. 

​

Please contact us if you encounter a specific issue with which we can assist.
