This accessibility statement applies to the website www.sakky.fi, maintained by the Savo Educational Federation of Municipalities, including the subdomain www.varkaudenlukio.fi. The web service is subject to the Act on the Provision of Digital Services, which requires public sector websites to meet accessibility requirements.
The website was published in May 2025. This accessibility statement was prepared in May 2025. Accessibility requirements have been taken into account from the beginning in the development of the sakky.fi website (published 05/2025), and the technical platform provider has ensured the accessibility of the site within their responsibility.
The Savo Educational Federation of Municipalities is committed to meeting at least the AA-level criteria of the WCAG guidelines (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) in the development of its digital services. Compliance with accessibility requirements is also required from all third parties who produce content for the site.
Non-accessible content
The new website does not yet fully comply with the accessibility criteria:
- Some image alternative texts are missing or insufficient. We are improving content producers’ training to address this.
- “Valokeilassa” articles and blog posts have been migrated from the previous website. These legacy text contents may not meet accessibility standards.
- The site contains documents with accessibility issues. These include, for example, PDFs imported from the previous website and decision documents from the Dynasty service. The documents originate from various individuals and external organizations, and we do not have access to the original versions.
- “Telman poluilla” blog content is not fully accessible. We are currently seeking a solution.
- The separate eShop (Sakky) and Luomuravintola websites (open in a new window) are not fully accessible.
- The service map for student guidance services (thinglink.com) is not accessible. We are looking into solutions.
- Videos:
- Videos published before 23 September 2020 are not fully captioned.
- Not all visible content in silent videos has an accessible alternative.
Ongoing efforts to improve accessibility
We regularly monitor the accessibility of the sakky.fi website through internal audits and frequent testing. We provide our content creators with training on producing accessible content in accordance with the accessibility legislation. However, the website has multiple content contributors, which presents challenges in maintaining consistent content accessibility.
We also offer support to users for whom digital services are not accessible. Customer service points are available on all our campus areas. You can visit them in person, call, or send a text message, WhatsApp message, or email.
The sakky.fi website includes a chatbot (virtual assistant). Several chatbots have been implemented, each covering different topics.
