Incompatibility with accessibility legislation
The content listed below is not compatible with the relevant legal regulations on accessibility:
Simple language:
We try to use language that is as simple as possible. This is not always possible due to the complex content. Please write to us if you believe that a text presents issues in an unnecessarily complicated manner. You can find a brief description of the student body, the educational work and the official admission process at the Erich Kästner School in Münster on this page.
Abbreviations:
We try to avoid the use of abbreviations as much as possible or we use the unabridged spelling when it first appears in the text and then use the introduced abbreviation in the rest of the text. Please inform us if you come across any abbreviations or technical terms in our offer that require explanation.
Visually necessary elements:
Images are provided with a short alternative text.
Operation with the keyboard:
Keyboard traps can occur when using the pages. In addition, the website can be used to a limited extent using the keyboard. Unfortunately, content elements cannot be skipped.
Links:
There are still links on the website that are not marked barrier-free.
PDF documents
Map applications
Older content in this form is sometimes only accessible to a limited extent.
Disproportionate burden:
Our content is not made fully accessible because this would place a disproportionate burden on us. Since accessibility of a school homepage is a very extensive project, we ask for your understanding that it will unfortunately take some time until it is fully implemented.
Due to the disproportionate burden of changing all content on the homepage www.erich-kaestner-schule-muenster.com, the school management is temporarily making an exception in accordance with Section 10 Paragraph 2 L-BGG.
