Accessibility
Every library at this address is meant to work with a keyboard, a screen reader or a phone held sideways, and most of it already does. This page says what is built in, what falls short for now, and how to ask for an alternative. There is one statement for the whole address as well.
What is built in
Every page has a single, ordered heading structure, a skip link and visible focus. Equations are published three times over from one source: the drawn layer you see, a MathML twin a screen reader can walk through, and a plain-text line for copying. Every figure, animated ones included, carries a caption and an accessible name, and can be enlarged in a dialog a keyboard can open, close with Escape and return from. Animations respect your reduced-motion setting. The question practice works without a mouse, and the sketch box is optional: every question can be worked on paper and self-marked without it.
The three libraries
All three libraries carry the skip link, the heading structure, the visible focus and the reduced-motion behaviour described above, and all three draw their diagrams into the page with captions and accessible names. One difference is worth knowing: the MathML twin and the plain-text copy of an equation exist on physics and maths pages and not on biology ones, which have no equations to give them to. On all three, a figure can be enlarged into a dialog that a keyboard can open, close with Escape and return from.
Known limitations
Physics and biology workbooks and all printable card packs include document tags, a title, language metadata and a defined reading order. Physics workbooks have been checked manually with a screen reader; equivalent checks for the remaining PDFs are pending. Maths workbooks and printable card packs include document tags and reading order. They have not yet completed an end-to-end human screen-reader review. The same questions and cards are also available as HTML. If a page, a figure or a download does not work with your setup, that is a defect rather than a policy, and we would like to know.
Another format, or a problem
Write to support@inklearning.co.uk and say which page and what you need. Reports of anything unusable with a screen reader, keyboard or switch device get fixed with the same priority as a wrong answer.
