Discover Science & Engineering is committed to making the information on its websites accessible to all. Future redevelopments of its websites will prioritise the accessibility of all content.
To this end, this website follows guidelines set out by the W3C (the World Wide Web Consortium). The W3C’s WAI (Web Accessibility Initiative) produces accessibility guidelines that are an internationally recognised benchmark of accessibility.
In constructing and maintaining this site, we endeavour to meet AA level of conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG 2.0) of WAI.
The benefits of this include:
- Pages that are fast to download, regardless of whether you are using broadband or a modem
- Relative text sizes, allowing users to change font size easily using their browser
- Content of each page still readable even if your browser or browsing device does not support Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
- Descriptive ALT (i.e. alternative text) attributes on all images. Certain decorative graphics include null ALT attributes
- All pages able to function without JavaScript. However, certain features such as error checking on forms are only available when JavaScript is enabled
