Accessibility statement

Built for every learner

Money Matters aims to meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA on every screen, for students, teachers and families. This is our target, not a claim of conformance: the testing below is still going on.

For learners

  • Read-aloud for lessons, questions and answers
  • Three reading levels and an easy-read font
  • High contrast, dark mode, larger text and reduced motion
  • Lessons in English, Spanish, Portuguese and more, including right-to-left Arabic and Hebrew

For everyone

  • Controls are built to work with a keyboard, with a visible focus ring
  • Labels and landmarks for screen readers
  • Layouts checked at eight widths from 320 to 1440 pixels, which covers phones, tablets, Chromebooks and 200% zoom on a laptop
  • Printable lessons, worksheets and family letters

How we test

Automated checks

Before each release, automated WCAG checks (axe-core) run on the main screens, and a release with a serious or critical problem does not ship.

Keyboard, zoom and screen readers

The release tests also move through the app by keyboard, check phone and tablet layouts and 200% zoom for cut-off or sideways scrolling, and check what a screen reader hears: headings, locked lessons, selected answers and announced results.

Still in progress

A listening review by people who use screen readers every day, and a review of the translations by native speakers. Tell us what we should fix first.
