We aim to make the website accessible so you can:

​

• Change colours, contrast levels and fonts using your browser or device settings

• Zoom in up to 400% without text spilling off the screen

• Navigate the website using a keyboard alone, without needing a mouse

• Listen to content using a screen reader, including recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver

• Access the site on a mobile phone, tablet or desktop device

We have also tried to make the text as simple as possible to understand. AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.

This website is built using Wix, which provides a number of built-in accessibility features:

​

• Keyboard navigation — all pages can be navigated using a keyboard, with a logical tab order from left to right

• Skip to content — keyboard users can skip directly to the main content of each page

• Screen reader support — the site is built with correct semantic HTML, ARIA attributes and heading structure to support screen readers

• Automatic DOM ordering — page content is structured so screen readers can navigate it logically

• Language attribution — the site language is set to English, enabling screen readers to apply correct pronunciation

• Responsive design — the site adapts to different screen sizes and devices

• Alt text — we aim to include descriptive alternative text for meaningful images across the site

• Colour contrast — we aim to use sufficient contrast between text and background colours

• Focus indicators — visible focus rings are displayed for keyboard users navigating interactive elements

We are aware that some parts of this website may not yet be fully accessible. Known issues include:

​

• PDF documents — a number of policy and information documents on the Key Information page are provided as PDFs. Older or scanned PDF files may not be fully accessible to screen reader software. Where possible, key information is also presented as readable web page content. If notified, we will update these or provide the information in an alternative format.

• Images — while we aim to include alt text for all meaningful images, some images added over time may not yet have descriptions. We will correct these if notified.

• Videos — some video content embedded in or linked from the site may not include captions or transcripts. We will rectify this where notified.

• Third-party content — some embedded content (such as maps or social media feeds) is provided by third parties and may not meet accessibility standards. This content is outside our direct control.

• Forms — contact forms on the site may have limitations depending on browser settings and assistive technologies used.

This website is partially compliant with WCAG 2.1 AA, due to the exemptions and non-compliances listed above.

Under the accessibility regulations, primary schools are partially exempt from the requirement to make all content accessible — specifically content that is not needed to use the school's core services. However, content that parents and carers need to access — such as forms, admissions information, and key policy documents — should meet accessibility standards, and this is our priority.
