Bury College is committed to making our platforms as accessible as possible and as part of the College’s commitment to Equality and Diversity care has been taken to ensure the overall site accessibility meets at least WCAG 2.0, WCAG 2.1 AA standards. In many cases these have been exceeded to meet WCAG 2.1 AAA requirements.
Please note that we sometimes link to external content or use embedded widgets and these may not have been reviewed or evaluated for their accessibility.
As part of our accessibility evaluation and review process, manual testing has been performed and the following tools have also been used;

We are always looking to improve the accessibility of our site, so if you find anything on the site difficult to use or wish to provide us with feedback on what could be improved please let us know by emailing marketing@burycollege.ac.uk.

Any new PDFs or Word documents we publish will be improved to meet accessibility standards as best as we can. Please contact us if you have difficulty with any of the documents on the site and we will work to provide you with the content in an alternative, more accessible format.
