| Abstract: | In early 2021 the Government announced a review of the current admissions system. This edited collection explores the opportunities and challenges surrounding any move to post-qualification admissions. Among the topics considered are: (1) Should the UK admissions system move to a model of post-qualification admissions and if so which: post-qualification applications, decisions or offers?; (2) What would the impact of admissions reform be across the UK and for attracting international students?; (3) Are predicted grades the problem or would using achieved grades make the system less fair?; and (4) Is this the optimum moment to change the admissions system, considering the impact of the pandemic on the education system? |
