Unions demand review into Ucas admissions policies
EDUCATION workers insist today that government demands for a review of university admissions would be a “perfect opportunity” for constructive change in unconditional offers.
The University and College Union (UCU) has said that the calls from Education Secretary Damian Hinds for a review of university admissions could signal a chance for a “radical overhaul” of how people are accepted into higher-education institutions.
The call from Mr Hinds comes as criticism grows over the use of unconditional offers in the Ucas application system.
