Despite best efforts, we regret to say we have been unable to secure a new host organisation for SPA and so SPA will not be re-established. Our resources are still available at https://t.co/tzmA8YREiZ and will be retained by UCAS. Thank you for your support.

Unconditional offers are rising even though evidence from @Ucas that they lead to underperformance. Contextual offers are a better instrument, assisting social mobility and maintaining the incentive for pupils to work, says John Law
