Accessibility Statement

MLA College is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all users, including people with disabilities. We continually work to improve the accessibility and usability of our website and learning platforms, in line with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA and relevant UK legislation.

This accessibility statement applies to: https://www.mla.ac.uk

Our Commitment

We aim to make our website and digital learning services accessible to as many people as possible. This includes enabling users to:

• Change colours, contrast levels, and fonts
• Zoom up to 400% without loss of content or functionality
• Navigate most of the site using a keyboard or assistive technology
• Use screen readers and speech recognition software
• Access content that is clear, consistent, and well-structured

Compliance Status

MLA College strives to meet WCAG 2.2 AA standards.

This website is currently:

Partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA.

Some content may not yet be fully accessible, but we are actively working to improve this.

Known Accessibility Limitations

We are aware that some areas may not yet be fully accessible, including:

• Some older documents may not be fully screen-reader compatible
• Some interactive components may not yet fully support keyboard-only use
• Some media content may not yet include captions or audio descriptions
• Some focus indicators and form guidance may require improvement

This means that while many areas already meet the standard, some content and features may not yet be fully accessible. We are working to resolve this as part of our ongoing accessibility programme.

What We Are Doing to Improve Accessibility

We are taking the following steps:

• Regular accessibility audits and testing
• Ongoing staff training on accessible content creation
• Remediation of legacy content
• Accessibility checks for new digital content
• Monitoring feedback from users
