Writing for this website

Wherever possible, we should not use PDF, Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents to publish information online.

Instead, we should publish information on web pages.

This is because:

• documents don't work well with software that reads text out loud (used by people with visual impairments)
• documents designed for print can be difficult to read on a mobile phone
• information published within a document can't be found easily by search engines

New policies and strategies that need to be available online can be published as online documents, for example:

• Climate Change Strategy 2020
• Gender Pay Gap Report 2018-2019
• COVID-19 Outbreak Management Plan
• Supporting pupils with medical needs policy 2020
