Title:
  New toggles are confusing for screen reader users

Status in Mahara:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The new toggle-style checkboxes (used, for example, in the user
  settings page) are mostly accessible, but can be confusing to screen
  reader users because they include both "On" and "Off" text regardless
  of whether they are checked or unchecked. This text uses CSS :before
  and :after pseudo-elements, so it may be an issue particular to the
  JAWS screen reader, but it's worth looking into whether this can be
  changed. Ideally, either "On" or "Off" would be read out, depending on
  whether the checkbox is checked or unchecked.

  Affects latest master
