Accessibility Statement

Using this website

This website is run by VALERON. We want as many people as possible to be able to use it. You should be able to:

• zoom in up to 400% without text spilling off the screen or content being cut off
• use the whole site with a keyboard alone, with a visible outline showing where you are
• skip past the menu straight to the main content
• pause anything that moves on its own
• turn animations off by switching on the ‘reduce motion’ setting on your device
• change colours, text size and spacing in your browser without losing content

AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.

The standard we work to

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. This is the same standard the Government Digital Service (GDS) sets for GOV.UK services. As a private website we are not covered by the Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations 2018, but we follow the GDS accessibility guidance where it applies to a site of this kind, and this statement is based on the GDS model.

Known limitations

We know some parts of this website are not as accessible as they could be:

• On desktop computers the mouse pointer is replaced by a custom pointer. If you use an enlarged or high-visibility pointer set on your device, it will not show on this site.
• The large Roman numerals behind the five pillars are faint by design. They are decorative, are hidden from screen readers and repeat information given in the text, so they are not needed to use the site.

Other websites we link to

• The School Inspection Finder at valeronmovement.com/ukschoolratings is a separate tool and has its own checks.
• Tools listed on the Resources page that are run by other sites, such as the Wales Scorecard, are not covered by this statement.

Feedback and contact information

If you find a problem we have not listed, or you need information from this website in a different format, email admin@valeronmovement.com. Tell us the web address of the page, what the problem is and what device and software you were using. We aim to reply within 5 working days.

How we tested this website

We last tested every page of this website on 3 November 2026, on desktop and mobile screen sizes. We used the axe-core automated checker and checked by hand for keyboard access, visible focus, layout at 320 pixels wide, text spacing, colour contrast and motion.

We also went through every page with a virtual screen reader, which reads out the page the way NVDA or VoiceOver would. We fixed the problems it found, including article titles that were not marked as headings, links that did not say where they lead, and emoji and symbols that were read aloud.

We have not yet tested the site with a screen reader on a real computer or phone. We plan to do this and will update this statement when we have.

Compliance status

We believe this website meets WCAG 2.2 level AA, apart from the known limitations listed above. We will confirm this once we have tested it with a screen reader on a real device.
