Audio Narration
Selected main pages of our site have an accompanying audio narration track to aid the visually impaired, while also improving language comprehension for foreign students. Cue points are used to highlight the sentence of text currently being read, allowing the user to "follow along" with the audio narration track. This service is currently under trial and we intend to re-record the narration using a human voice if it is found to be successful.
Click the 
icon in the top bar (where available) to activate the audio narration.
Site Zoom
We have developed a unique site zoom feature which allows you to increase the size of the text and images on our site for easier viewing. Level One is the default setting and should be suitable for most users. Your zoom preference will be remembered for the duration of your visit to our site.
Level One | Level Two | Level Three
