The Archive of Market and Social Research offers a free resource of survey results and reports going back 60 or more years.  This is a unique and valuable resource for students who are covering Modern British History as part of their A-level course or who are completing an EPQ. 

This archive is unique.  It contains thousands of survey reports from the 1960s onwards, including, for example, many political opinion polls, reports of social attitudes  and how we behaved, what we ate, how we voted, what we valued and how we shopped over the last 60 years - and how this has all changed. 


By completing this form, you will receive Your Guide to the AMSR Archive for Modern British History A-Level Students with suggestions for topics and where and how to find the material for teachers and students to build your own body of evidence from contemporary documents and data, much of which has never been seen before. You will also receive a link to a 'How to use the AMSR archive' video to help guide your students.  


This is your route to making your students stand out and to top grades.


The AMSR archive gives you access to:

A unique resource from the last 60 years.

Contemporary documents on what the public thought of their politicians and what the political issues of the time were.

Contemporary documents on how we behaved, thought and our opinions on a range of issues.

Information to enable students to come to their own conclusions in their A Level Modern British History projects and make them stand out.

“The archive really is a treasure trove!” 

Louise Hunter, Head of History and Politics, Notting Hill and Ealing High School       

“This is an Archive that unlocks lots of different topics for modern British historians.” 

Professor Claire Langhamer, Director of the Institute of Historical Research
