The Digital Teacher and web accessibility

Cambridge Assessment English is committed to a policy of open and equal opportunity for all, and this includes making the information contained in our websites accessible to as many internet users as we can.

We hope that the accessibility and usability levels of our sites are already good, but in order to make more certain of this we are actively working towards compliance with the main website accessibility standards (as defined in version 2.0 of the W3C WAI Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

Here is a summary of the features we have used to make our site more accessible:

  • A stylesheet is used with relative font sizes on all text with the exception of graphical text. Information can still be accessed if stylesheets are turned off or not supported.
  • Text can be increased or decreased in size by using the "view" option in your browser.
  • No information is exclusively conveyed using colour.
  • A site map is available to provide information about the structure of the website.

File downloads

We have many PDF and MP3 files available for free download.

For PDF files: We recommend that users download the latest FREE version of Adobe Reader to view these.

For MP3 files: Most modern computers will have a media player already installed. If your computer does not have a media player, or if you want to download an up-to-date version, use one of these links. Download Windows Media Player or download RealOne Player (Mac versions are available for both).

Transcripts of the MP3 files are available alongside (as part of the PDF download of the relevant sample paper).
