Measures to support accessibility

3P Learning Inc. takes the following measures to ensure accessibility of Reading Eggs:

  • Include accessibility throughout our internal policies.
  • Appoint an accessibility officer and/or ombudsperson.
  • Assign clear accessibility goals and responsibilities.

Conformance status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Reading Eggs is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

Additional accessibility considerations

The ability to turn off background music to decrease distractions.
The reading level required is very low with audio instructions reading out questions with localised pronunciation.

Limitations and alternatives

Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility of Reading Eggs, there may be some limitations. Below is a description of known limitations, and potential solutions. Please contact us if you observe an issue not listed below.

Known limitations for Reading Eggs:

  1. Videos: Videos do not have captions because some videos are aimed at a young audience who is unable to read yet. We are currently investigating adding captions to our videos.
  2. Student Lessons: Interactive activities can not be completed with a keyboard or screen reader because the technology used to display the activities is not accessible by default. Investigating a way to update the activities to work with keyboard and screen readers. If possible complete the activity with a touch device or mouse. Troublesome activities can be skipped by a parent or teacher.
  3. Instructions: Some lessons have audio instructions or instructions that are only shown for a brief time then cannot be accessed because of limitations of the technology at the time. Newer lessons are being fitted with an additional toolbar to show the instructions the whole time and allowing the student to replay the audio at will. Encourage your child to read or listen to the instructions in full before starting the activity.
  4. Written text and icons: Text may be hard to read and there is no ability to zoom because of the limitations of the technology at the time. We are working on improving our colour combinations to be easier to read. Moving to a larger device may help with this issue in the mean time.
