WCAG 2.1 AA: Partly conforms
Self-assessed by IdeaScore. Not certified by an outside body.
The international guidelines that make web pages usable by people with disabilities.
In place
- We assess IdeaScore against WCAG 2.1 Level AA ourselves. No outside body has assessed it.
- An automated check finds no serious or critical issue on the pages we scan, in light and dark mode, on large screens and phones.
- A manual check with a screen reader is still to come, so we say IdeaScore partly conforms. The accessibility statement lists the known gaps.
Work in progress
- A manual screen reader pass (NVDA) on sign-in, applying, scoring and the public pages.
- Text summaries for charts.
- Fixes for the gaps listed in the accessibility statement.
What we have checked
- KeyboardCheckedThe sign-in, apply, score, staff review and public pages can be used with a keyboard alone. Every stop shows a focus ring, and no dialog traps the keyboard. We checked this ourselves; disabled users have not tested it.
- Reduced motionCheckedAnimation stops or reduces when your device asks for less motion, on the pages we checked. Counters driven by scripts were not checked separately.
- Dark modeCheckedA dark theme is available, and the automated check runs in both themes.
- Zoom to 200 percentIn progressWe test pages at 200 percent zoom with a script. Some pages still scroll sideways or overlap at that zoom.
- Screen-reader labelsIn progressButtons and fields have names a screen reader can read on the pages we checked. We have not yet run a manual pass with a screen reader.

Limits
- Until every Level AA criterion is met on the pages we name, the honest status is "partially conforms".
