Non-accessible content

The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons.

Non-compliance with the accessibility regulations

Specialised notations

Current web technology is not capable of ensuring the accessibility of specialised notations (e.g., mathematics, chemistry, physics, music, phonetics etc.). We are monitoring developments in these areas and will improve our services as the technology matures.

Interactive activities

Some online activities cannot be made fully accessible (e.g., categorising an image). Wherever practical, an alternative activity will be provided.

Some drag-and-drop activities may not be accessible for keyboard-only and screen reader users. Where they are used for summative assessment and are not accessible, alternative versions will be provided. This fails WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 1.3.1: Info and Relationships (Level A) and will be resolved by the end of January 2026. 

Learning events

For accessibility in online learning events, please refer to the Accessibility statement for Adobe Connect.

Forms

Some forms do not display an adequate error message. This makes it difficult for assistive technology users to identify why the form submission wasn't successful, or which fields contain errors. This fails WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 3.3.1: Error Identification (Level A) and will be resolved by the end of January 2026. 

Some forms do not identify required or mandatory fields clearly. This fails WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 3.3.2: Labels or Instructions (Level A) and will be resolved by the end of January 2026. 

Radio buttons and checkboxes in some forms are missing group labels. This fails WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 1.3.1: Info and Relationships (Level A) and will be resolved by the end of January 2026. 

Inactive buttons

Inactive buttons do not appear in the tab order until an action is performed to change their status to active. When inactive, screen reader and keyboard users cannot tab to these buttons and do not realise these buttons are available. This fails WCAG 2.2 Success Criterion 1.3.1: Info and Relationships (Level A) and will be resolved by the end of January 2026.
