Known Issues
Because we are using the Google Sites builder we have identified a number of issues that may affect the quality of user experience on our website.
Visible focus
An issue that occurs with desktop screen readers and the navigation menu of the site is that focus can sometimes be lost. This does not occur with mobile devices and because we have no control over the underlying platform this issue cannot be fixed at this time. The plan is to eventually move to a custom built platform where we can ensure that these issues are removed. Our advice for now is to utilise the site map page for navigation as this does not experience this issue. This fails WCAG 2.4.7 Focus Visible (AA).
Keyboard navigation
An issue that occurs with desktop screen readers and the navigation menu of the site. This does not occur with mobile devices. When navigating with a screen reader the user is unable to navigate through the navigation menu using the arrow keys as they could otherwise. Our advice for now is to utilise the site map page for navigation as this does not experience this issue. This fails WCAG 2.1.1 Keyboard (A).
Skip to content
There is no skip to content method because it is not included in the Google Sites builder. We have no control over the underlying platform this issue cannot be fixed at this time. This fails WCAG 2.4.1 Bypass Blocks (A).
Content resizing
On mobile devices user may see that page titles sometimes break up long words over two lines, this is an issue because the Google Sites builder does not correctly resize text in this case. We have no control over the underlying platform this issue cannot be fixed at this time.
Some users that make use of software such as Supernova or other magnifiers may struggle with default text size or line length. We have increased the default text size to help with this issue and suggest that users that require greater text sizes or a smaller number of words per line use either the mobile view, or browser zoom functionality which reflows the content on our pages and should provide a better reading experience.
If you find an issue that we have yet to identify or are having trouble viewing content on the website, please contact us using the method described above in the 'Contact Us' section of this statement.
