At The Shires Tutoring Company, we are committed to making our website accessible and usable for everyone, including individuals with disabilities. We believe all students and parents should be able to access information about our tutoring services without barriers.

Our Commitment to Accessibility

We strive to follow the principles and guidelines outlined in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
These standards guide us in ensuring that our website content is:

Perceivable – Information is presented in ways that users can easily see and hear.
Operable – Navigation and controls can be used with a keyboard, mouse, or assistive device.
Understandable – Content and functionality are clear and consistent.
Robust – The site works well with assistive technologies such as screen readers and magnifiers.

We regularly review our website and make improvements to maintain these standards.

Third-Party Content

Our website may include links or embedded content from third-party sites or applications (such as scheduling software, payment processors, or video content). While we cannot control the accessibility features of these external providers, we encourage all of them to follow WCAG and ADA accessibility standards.
