Preview is a careers guidance programme, designed for those aiming at AS/A levels, IB or equivalent examinations. Preview assesses a pupil’s interests and personal qualities and matches them with needs and requirements of more than 45 broad career areas. From this a workbook is produced which states the pupil's own basic career direction and asks a range of questions for the pupil to address.
Pupils are then encouraged to undertake careers research using the Careers Analysis Forms, the Careers Directory and relevant work experience.
The Preview workbook presents to the adviser a picture of the young person's stronger occupational and academic interests. In addition to identifying careers the pupil may already be thinking about, it can also reveal a range of closely related and well-matched careers which may not have been considered previously.
To assist in choosing sixth form subjects, the workbook contains subject selection and availability charts. These help pupils choose sixth form subjects to meet the entry requirements for their more likely higher education and careers needs.
By taking part each pupil effectively receives:
- A 25 page bound workbook - the 'Report'
- Careers Analysis Forms for further research
- A copy of The Careers Directory
- A copy of the Work Experience and Personal Development Guide for Students
- The Cambridge Profile Aptitude Tests (optional)
- A personal one-to-one interview with a Careers Advisor (optional)

- Blind students' workbooks can be produced on request
And the careers department receives
- WORKBRIEF: The Careers Directory on CD-ROM for the school network
