Technical information about the accessibility of the Inspiring Skills Excellence in Wales websites
Inspiring Skills Excellence in Wales is committed to making its websites accessible in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard, due to the non-compliances listed below.
Non-accessible content
The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons:
Videos – Audio Description (Pre-recorded)
