With reference to #5298

What is happening?

While using NVDA, the news channel logo is not announced. This creates accessibility barriers for blind users who rely on screen readers to navigate the dashboard


To Reproduce

  • Open the Wiki Education Dashboard.

  • Use NVDA to navigate to the news channel logo.

  • Move the cursor over the news channel logo.

  • Observe that NVDA does not announce the logo.


Expected behavior

When using NVDA, the news channel logo should be announced when the cursor hovers over it. This will ensure that blind users who rely on screen readers can navigate the dashboard effectively.

Ah! Do you mean the news icon next to the 'Log out' link?
