Accessibility statement

Prepared 19 October 2026, from checks made on 18 October 2026

We want every child and parent to be able to use NextJen, including children who find reading hard and people who use a keyboard, a screen reader or a magnifier. This statement covers nextjentuition.co.uk: the website, the parent area and the practice and mock exam screens.

Accessibility statements are a legal requirement for public sector websites, not for small businesses like ours. We publish one anyway because we think you should know what works and what doesn't.

What we've built in

Text uses Atkinson Hyperlegible, a typeface designed to be easy to read, including for young readers.
The site follows your device's light or dark setting, and both have been checked for text contrast.
You can zoom the page, and every page works on a phone screen without scrolling sideways.
Links, buttons and form fields show a clear outline when you move to them with a keyboard, and every website page starts with a link that skips to the main content.
Every form field has a label, and answer buttons in practice are large enough for small fingers.
If your device is set to reduce motion, the site's moving effects are switched off.
Year 3 children can have questions read aloud with Read to me, and mock exams can read the instructions out. These use your device's own voice.
Pictures that carry meaning have text descriptions, and decorative ones are hidden from screen readers.

How accessible this website is

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. We believe most of the site does, but we haven't had a full independent audit, so we can't say for certain that it fully meets the standard. We know about the problems below.

Known problems

On a practice question, a screen reader may read the whole question card again when the next question appears, and may read the feedback twice.
When practice loads slowly, the "Tap to try again" button is smaller than the other buttons a child uses.
On a phone, the second row of menu links on the 11+ and GCSE pages scrolls sideways, with no sign that there are more links.
Some paragraphs fade in as you scroll. While they fade, the text is briefly fainter than it should be.

We plan to fix these before we open on 23 November 2026, and we'll update this page when we do.

How we tested

On 18 October 2026 we checked every public page of the website ourselves:

at desktop and phone sizes, in light and dark mode
with automatic checks for text contrast, small tap targets, page width, headings, picture descriptions, page language and form labels
with a keyboard, on the main forms and links
by reading the code of the parent area and the practice, mock exam and GCSE student screens

What we haven't done yet:

a full audit by an independent accessibility specialist
a full test with screen readers such as VoiceOver, TalkBack or NVDA
a test with reduced motion switched on in a browser (we checked the code only)
a test on a low-cost Android tablet
testing with children and parents who have access needs

Tell us about a problem

If something on NextJen is hard to use, or you need information in a different format, email hello@nextjentuition.co.uk or use our contact page. Tell us the page and what happened. We reply by the next working day, as set out in our promise.

This statement

We prepared this statement on 19 October 2026 from our own checks on 18 October 2026. We'll review it after our next round of checks, and at least once a year.
