Market research

Each year, OCR makes a substantial commitment to market research. Our market research projects include focus groups, online surveys, telephone interviews, case studies and one-to-one discussions. Over 5,000 teachers take part in our research projects each year.

Learning through market research

We travel all over the country to hear feedback and have had the pleasure of meeting a wide and varied set of people. Sometimes we hear positive comments, sometimes negative, but all feedback is received with enthusiasm and appreciation.

We employ the very best independent market research agencies to ensure our findings are robust and reliable. Each project makes us better informed and better able to improve the work we do.

Our consultation programmes help to ensure that the qualifications and services we develop closely meet the needs of teachers and learners.

We're always looking for people to take part in market research. If you'd like to know more please email research@ocr.org.uk.
