Accessibility Statement

This statement was last updated on 05 August 2025.

 

We want everyone who visit Venture English website to be able to access this website easily and find this experience rewarding. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user friendly for everyone.

 

To help us make it a positive place for everyone, we've been using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 (external) as our baseline. The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA, and AAA). 

​

For example, that means you should be able to:

​​

  • zoom in up to 300 per cent without the text spilling off the screen

  • navigate most of the website using just a keyboard

  • navigate most of the website using speech recognition software

  • listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver).

  • If you have a disability, you can go to AbilityNet's My Computer My Way website (external) to find out more advice on individual adjustments you can make to your device to make it easier to use.

 

We’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.
