We no longer recommend adding a translation widget to your website, as modern web browsers now offer built-in translation features. This allows parents to easily translate the website into their preferred language. If needed, you can provide guidance to parents on how to enable this feature and set their native language in their browser settings.
Support
For those with an existing Translate option, please note that it may stop working in the future. Google stopped supporting new access to the Website Translator in January 2019, so we can't guarantee its long-term reliability.
Google's statement on this reads:
"We no longer provide new access to Google Translates Website Translator. This change does not affect existing use of the Website Translator. We encourage users looking to translate webpages to use browsers that support translation natively."
Website visitors can use their browser’s built-in translation feature to view the school website in their preferred language.
Below are official guides for commonly used browsers:
- Google Chrome: Translate web pages in Chrome
- Microsoft Edge: Use Microsoft Translator in Microsoft Edge
- Apple Safari: Translate a webpage in Safari on iPhone, iPad, or Mac
