Standards
Bedford College has ensured that all pages produced by our
development team validates against XHTML Transitional standard.
However, on occasions we do use third party tools within our web
sites and we have no control over the HTML produced by these
controls and therefore cannot ensure that the code produced is
valid XHTML.
The World Wide Web consortium sets the standards for websites.
This XHTML approval means that this website has been written to
comply with these standards.
This mark means that the styles used in this website have been
properly constructed and meet the World Wide Web Consortium
standards.
The World Wide Web Consortium Web Accessibility Initiative sets
the standards required to make websites accessible to as many
members of the community as possible.
The bobby system ensures that websites are fully accessible to
as many members of the community as possible.

Internet Explorer your font size can be increased by choosing view

choice.
