All table headers should define a valid `scope` attribute, which tells assistive technologies
what the header refers to.

For example:

```html
<table>
    <thead>
    <tr>
        <th scope="col">Name</th>
        <th scope="col">Age</th>
    </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
    <tr>
        <td>Bob</td>
        <td>35</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>Sue</td>
        <td>45</td>
    </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>
```

In this example, the `scope` attribute indicates the two `<th>` cells are column 
headers, which allows assistive technologies to read out those headers alongside
each `<td>` cell. 

Without this information, the structure of the table is only apparent to people
who are able to see it.
