After takeoff, the instructional flight entered a right closed VFR pattern for multiple touch-and-go landings. During the fourth pattern, just as the aircraft reached the location where the occupants were going to turn base, the tower advised them to make a left 360 degree turn and report reestablished on the downwind. One of the pilots advised the tower that they were just about to turn base, but because the tower needed the spacing to allow an IFR aircraft to depart, the controller repeated the instructions. One of the pilots read back the instructions, and then the aircraft entered a left 360 degree turn. Just about the time the aircraft was becoming reestablished on the downwind, the flying pilot allowed the airspeed to decrease below Vs (stalling speed), and the aircraft entered a spin.
Probable Cause: The flying pilot's failure to maintain adequate airspeed resulting in a stall/spin. An additional cause was the flight instructor's inadequate supervision of the flight.
