Last Updated: October 2026

​

Darrell Barnard-Jones (hereafter referred to as “The Coach”) is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all individuals, including those with disabilities. The Coach continually strives to improve the user experience for everyone and applies the relevant accessibility standards to ensure that digital products, services, and website content are inclusive and easy to navigate.

​

1. Conformance Status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) define 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.

The website and digital platforms operated by The Coach are designed to be substantially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards.

2. Accessibility Features on This Site

To help ensure that all students can access the available coaching resources and video content, the website incorporates the following features:

• Clear Visual Structure: Text layouts use high-contrast color palettes and clean typography to ensure maximum readability for visually impaired users.

• Keyboard Navigation: Major site components, including service listings and contact forms, are structured to be navigable using standard keyboard inputs.

• Descriptive Alt Text: Images and non-text elements relevant to the services provided include alternative text descriptions where appropriate.

• Video Course Access: The video platform is selected to support standard play, pause, and volume controls compatible with native operating system accessibility features.

3. Technical Specifications

Accessibility of the website relies on the following technologies to work with the particular combination of web browser and any assistive technologies or plugins installed on your computer:

• HTML

• WAI-ARIA

• CSS

• JavaScript

These technologies are relied upon for conformance with the accessibility standards used.

4. Limitations and Alternatives

Despite best efforts to ensure accessibility of all pages and content, some limitations may occur due to the native behavior of third-party plugins (such as automated calendar booking widgets or third-party video players).

If a Student experiences difficulty accessing any video course content, booking a one-to-one tuition slot, or submitting a file for the 1st Round Self-Tape Review Service, they are encouraged to contact The Coach directly using the details below. The Coach will gladly make alternative arrangements to ensure the Student receives full access to the required services.

5. Feedback and Contact Information

Feedback regarding the accessibility of the website and digital materials is welcome. If you encounter accessibility barriers or require assistance with any part of the site, please contact The Coach via the contact form on the website. The Coach aims to respond to all accessibility enquiries within 3–5 business days.
