Our commitment
We want everyone, including disabled people and people using assistive technology, to be able to use SEN2gether comfortably. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA, and we treat accessibility as ongoing work, not a one-off task.
What we’ve done on this website
- Clear headings, page titles and breadcrumbs, and a “Skip to content” link, so the site is easy to move around with a screen reader or keyboard.
- Every menu, button, form and tool works with a keyboard, with a clear focus outline.
- Text and colours chosen for readable contrast, using your device’s own font, and pages that can be zoomed to 400% without losing anything.
- Animations switch off if you’ve asked your device to reduce motion, and nothing on the page depends on them.
- Decorative shapes are hidden from screen readers; meaningful images have descriptions.
- Our tools tell screen readers what’s changed, for example each new question in the benefits checker.
Known limitations
- Maps in the school and nursery finders are hard to use with a screen reader. Everything on a map is also in the list next to it.
- Some content written in the app and shown here (such as podcast descriptions) may not be perfectly structured.
- Pages and services run by others, such as GOV.UK, council websites and the app stores, have their own accessibility.
The SEN2gether app
We work on accessibility in our apps too, including support for the features built into iOS and Android, such as larger text, screen readers and reduced motion.
Tell us about a problem
If anything is hard to use, or you need information in a different format, please tell us: email support@sen2gether.com with the problem and the page or screen it’s on, and we’ll do our best to put it right.
