AFTRS Accessibility Action Plan

You’ll experience our values first hand. Diversity is not just a buzz-word for us; we believe that an inclusive workforce builds the foundation for creativity and innovation. For us, it’s about more than visible differences – it’s about the different experiences, capabilities, insights and perspectives our people bring to work with them every day. We’re working hard to create an environment where everyone can bring their whole selves to work, regardless of gender, cultural identity, age, sexual preference, disability or work style.

Accessibility of the Australian Film Television and Radio School Website

AFTRS is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disability. Our webpage templates are tested for accessibility in line with WCAG 2.2 Level AA on an annual basis. Issues are remediated as quickly as possible, and improvements are applied continually to improve the user experience and accessibility for all users.

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility or the usability of our website. If you would like to provide feedback or encounter any problems, please call us on 1300 223 877 or email us at info@aftrs.edu.au.

Accessible Recruitment Practices

AFTRS is committed to building a richly diverse and inclusive workforce and actively values workplace diversity, including the contributions of people with disability. We strongly encourage individuals with disability to apply for roles at AFTRS and are committed to delivering a transparent, inclusive and accessible recruitment process. This includes providing reasonable adjustments throughout the recruitment and selection process to support equitable access and participation for all candidates.

The AFTRS Candidate Accessibility Pack outlines how accessibility and reasonable adjustments are supported at each stage of recruitment, including application, shortlisting, interview and pre‑employment checks. The pack provides information on available interview formats, access features at AFTRS, known access considerations, and options for requesting adjustments. Its purpose is to ensure candidates understand what to expect, feel supported in requesting adjustments, and are able to participate equitably and fully demonstrate their skills, experience, and capabilities throughout the recruitment process. Requests for reasonable adjustments will be handled confidentially and will not disadvantage your application. See the AFTRS Candidate Accessibility Pack here.

Candidates who wish to discuss reasonable adjustments, access requirements or alternative options are encouraged to contact the HR team at jobs@aftrs.edu.au or 02 9805 6610 to explore available options.
