Tech­ni­cal infor­ma­tion about this website’s accessibility

Wilt­shire Col­lege & Uni­ver­si­ty Cen­tre is com­mit­ted to mak­ing its web­site acces­si­ble, in accor­dance with the Pub­lic Sec­tor Bod­ies (Web­sites and Mobile Appli­ca­tions) (No. 2) Acces­si­bil­i­ty Reg­u­la­tions 2018.

Com­pli­ance status

This web­site is par­tial­ly com­pli­ant with the Web Con­tent Acces­si­bil­i­ty Guide­lines ver­sion 2.1 AA stan­dard, due to the exemp­tions list­ed below.

Non-acces­si­ble content

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

Non-com­pli­ance with the acces­si­bil­i­ty regulations

Some images do not have a text alter­na­tive, so peo­ple using a screen read­er can­not access the infor­ma­tion. This fails WCAG 2.1 suc­cess cri­te­ri­on 1.1.1 (non-text content).

We plan to add text alter­na­tives for all images by Sep­tem­ber 2023. When we pub­lish new con­tent we’ll make sure our use of images meets acces­si­bil­i­ty standards.

Con­tent that’s not with­in the scope of the acces­si­bil­i­ty reg­u­la­tions

Live video
We do not plan to add cap­tions to live video streams because live video is exempt from meet­ing the acces­si­bil­i­ty regulations.
