Olex Accessibility Statement

Commitment statement

Olex is committed to ensuring our platform is accessible to all users, including teachers and school staff who may have disabilities or access needs. We want everyone who uses Olex to be able to navigate the platform, upload and review work, and access feedback with ease.

Who uses the platform

Olex is primarily used by teachers and school staff, who upload student work for assessment and review feedback. In most cases, students do not need to access the platform directly, as their work can be submitted on their behalf by a teacher. Where students do interact with the platform directly to upload their own work, the same accessibility commitments outlined in this statement apply.

Conformance target

We are currently working towards conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA. We have not yet completed a formal accessibility audit, so we cannot confirm our current level of conformance. This statement will be updated as testing and remediation work progresses. The same standard applies to our marketing website at olex.ai, which we are working towards in parallel.

What's accessible now

While we have not yet completed formal testing, the following accessibility features are already in place:

  • Text resizing and a responsive layout that holds up when zoomed
  • Colour contrast that meets accessibility guidelines, with meaning never conveyed by colour alone
  • Clear, consistent, low-jargon UI language and layout
  • Captions on all training and onboarding videos, so they can be followed without sound

What we're working on

Our current plan includes:

  • Carrying out an initial accessibility audit (automated and manual testing) against WCAG 2.2 AA
  • Prioritising and fixing issues identified, starting with the most commonly used parts of the platform (upload, marking, and feedback screens)
  • Building accessibility checks into our development process going forward, so new features are checked before release
  • Reviewing and updating this statement at least once every 12 months, or sooner if significant changes are made to the platform

Known limitations

As we have not yet completed formal testing, we are not able to list specific known issues at this time. We will update this section once our audit is complete.

Beyond WCAG: inclusive design

Beyond WCAG conformance, Olex’s feedback and assessment features are also designed with inclusivity in mind. Including adaptable feedback levels and translation options to support learners with SEND or EAL. These features are part of the platform’s core design and are separate from the technical accessibility work described above.
