Accessibility statement.

Status

This site is built to conform with WCAG 2.2 Level AA and is checked page by page before publication. The workspace at /dashboard is in private preview and is built to the same target; a full conformance audit will be published when the workspace is generally available, and until then this statement describes the site.

What is done on this site

• Semantic HTML with landmarks: a header, one primary navigation, one main region, asides for margin notes, a footer. One first-level heading per page.
• A skip link is the first focusable element on every page.
• Keyboard access to everything, with a visible two-pixel focus ring that is never obscured.
• Text contrast at or above 4.5:1 in both the day and night themes; large text and interface parts at or above 3:1. Colour is never the only signal: stamps carry their word, the census circle has a label with the date, and status is always written.
• Text scales to 200% without loss and reflows at 400% without horizontal scrolling of the page; wide tables scroll within their own container.
• Motion is limited to opacity, a single-axis movement and the drawing of one line. When the system asks for reduced motion, nothing moves and videos show their poster image.
• Every image has a description or is marked decorative; every video is muted, has a poster and a description, and plays nothing that flashes.
• Forms have visible labels, hints tied to the field, and errors written next to the field and announced.
• The language is declared as Australian English; dates are written out (Mon 7 Sep 2026).
• The page works without JavaScript; scripts only add the live ruler, the theme toggle, the pricing toggle, the contact form and sign-in.

In the workspace

• A “plain type” preference swaps the reading face for Atkinson Hyperlegible Next without reflowing tables, and a “still” preference removes all motion regardless of system settings.
• Every drag has a keyboard path; the marking desk is fully keyboard-driven.
• Grade bands always show the letter; a fail is hatched as well as coloured.
• Exported outlines, rubrics and timetables are produced as tagged, structured documents.

Known limitations

• Video plates cannot be paused by a control on the page; they pause when reduced motion is set and when they scroll out of view. A pause control is planned.
• The hover preview of a footnote is a convenience on wide screens; the footnote itself is always available at the foot of the page by following the reference.
• The workspace has not yet been audited by a third party.

Tell us

If anything on this site or in Coord is hard to use, email hello@coord.tools with the page and what happened. We reply within two working days and treat a barrier as a defect to be fixed, not a request to be weighed.

Standards and law

The Higher Education Standards Framework references the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 applies to us directly as a provider of a service, and Australian government procurement adopts AS EN 301 549, which incorporates WCAG. University procurement checklists commonly ask for a WCAG 2.1 or 2.2 AA conformance statement or a VPAT; this page and the conformance summary are ours.1
