The module covers types of assessment, reasons for use, the importance of transparency, and a framework to support you in reviewing, or choosing whether to introduce, additional assessments as part of a fair admissions process. It allows admissions staff to work through each of the stages of the framework at their own pace, with a series of ‘challenge questions’ to ask within their university or college.
 
SPA's good practice toolkit has been developed to make its good practice resources more accessible, and easier for you to share materials with your colleagues, to consider them in your plans and reviews, and to support staff training.
 
This module sits alongside the existing SPA toolkit modules:

  • Introduction to the toolkit and SPA
  • Admissions policies
  • Interviews
  • Unconscious bias
  • Complaints and appeals
  • Applicant feedback
