Accesibility
Accessibility Statement
We are currently migrating many of our existing pages and services to new web templates. This page is only relevant to pages that use our new corporate templates and display a link to this page.
In accordance with the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 Part Four (as amended by Special Educational Needs Disability Act 2001) and the Disability Discrimination Act 2005, Crown University is actively working towards improving standards of accessibility and usability for its website.
The University is improving accessibility through the implementation of valid, semantic and well formed XHTML 1.0 transitional and CSS 2.0 code for its corporate templates.
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 became a World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) recommendation on 11 December 2008. The purpose of these guidelines is to make web content more accessible. Crown University supports and encourages widening participation and social inclusion, and web pages and services which use this web template comply with a wide range of guidelines in WCAG 2.0. We aim to make our web content accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities and are working towards further compliance with WCAG 2.0. By improving access to people with disabilities we also aim to improve the usability of our website for users in general.
Technical Notes Our pages have been tested on the following browsers:
PC Internet Explorer 5+; Netscape 7; Mozilla Firefox 1.04+; Opera 7+; Google Chrome 0.x+
Mac Internet Explorer 5.2; Safari 2.x+
Our templates have been created with valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional and CSS.
Disclaimer It is possible that some of our older pages may not conform to recent standards and guidelines. The Web Team is working with web administrators across the University to ensure that old web pages are rebuilt using the new template and future web pages adopt the corporate template. Where this is not appropriate, for example when websites are developed in partnership with external organisations, the Web Team is providing support and advice concerning accessibility.
We have done our very best to ensure that our pages work well for any user and on a wide range of devices, including browsers on mobile phones. However it is impossible to predict and therefore test for every possible problem. If you experience accessibility problems while viewing our website's please contact the Web Team and we will do our very best to resolve the problem for you or provide you with additional methods to obtain the information your require.
