Accessibility Statement

This accessibility statement applies to the Tayyibah Girls' School website, tayyibah.org.uk.

This website is run by Tayyibah Girls' School. We want as many people as possible to be able to use it. For example, that means you should be able to:

  • change colours, contrast levels and fonts using your browser or device settings
  • zoom in and use the website on a phone without having to scroll sideways
  • use the menus, slideshows, photo galleries and forms with just a keyboard
  • use the website with a screen reader: pages have headings, landmarks and text descriptions of photos

How accessible this website is

We know some parts of this website are not fully accessible:

  • many of our older PDF documents (policies, newsletters and guides) are not fully accessible to screen reader software
  • the Sunnah of the Week posts are posters, so their words are images of text and are not yet available as text
  • the Seerah Exhibition video has no captions
  • the map on our Contact page comes from Google and may not be fully accessible; our address and a "Get directions" link are given as text next to it
  • in older news posts, some photos have a general description (for example "photo 3 of 8") rather than a description of what they show

Technical information about this website's accessibility

Tayyibah Girls' School is committed to making its website accessible.

Compliance status

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2 (opens in a new tab) AA standard, due to the problems listed below.

Content that is not accessible

  • Older PDF documents. Many PDFs were created before this website and may not have headings, a reading order or text descriptions of images that a screen reader can use (WCAG 1.1.1, 1.3.1). If you need one in another format, please contact us.
  • Images of text. The Sunnah of the Week posts and some other posters are images, so their text cannot be resized or read by a screen reader (WCAG 1.1.1, 1.4.5).
  • Video without captions. The Seerah Exhibition video has no captions or transcript (WCAG 1.2.2, 1.2.3).
  • Google map. The map on the Contact page is provided by Google. The same information is on the page as text.
  • Photo descriptions in older news posts. Some photos in older posts have a general description rather than one that says what the photo shows (WCAG 1.1.1).

How we tested this website

This website was last tested on 12 November 2026 by The Olive Studio, which built it. We:

  • checked every type of page with automated testing (axe-core, set to WCAG 2.2 AA and best practice), at phone and desktop sizes
  • checked that pages work at phone widths without sideways scrolling
  • checked the menus, slideshows, photo galleries and forms with a keyboard only

The website has not yet been tested by disabled users or by an independent accessibility auditor.

Preparation of this accessibility statement

This statement was prepared on 12 November 2026. It will be reviewed at least once a year, and whenever the website changes significantly.
