# Creating Subject Charts

You can quickly and clearly visualise the subject statistics available in GO 4 Schools using the subject charts, which are available by clicking on and using the ‘visit the subject charts page’ link shown below from the subject home page.

The charts provide the flexibility to view subject information contained in GO 4 Schools through bar charts, pivot tables, scatter plots or residual charts. To draw a bar chart and pivot table representing the transition matrix for your subject, filtered by pupil premium, select the information shown below. Use the subject Year 7 baseline grade for the row and the subject grade (current, predicted or actual for the column and data options). Keep aggregation to ‘count’. You can use either fine grades or whole grades when you select your current, predicted or actual grades in the column and data selection.

| Row | Column | Data | Aggregation |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Subject: Grade/level: Subject: Year 7 Baseline | Subject: Grade/level: Subject: Current Grade | Subject: Grade/level: Subject: Current Grade | Count |

If you click on ‘Draw bar chart and pivot table’ at this stage you will see a bar chart and pivot table showing the comparison for ‘all’ students, as shown in the example below. If you then click on the ‘filtered by’ icon, you will be able to select how you want to filter the bar chart and pivot table. In this example we are going to filter the data by pupil premium. If you click on the cog icon next to ‘filtered by’ and select pupil premium ‘true’ from the most recent demographic column you will be able to compare the performance of this focus group.

This is a useful view as you can start to quickly identify the progress being made from KS2 data to GCSE current grade or actual result. You can then also compare student actual achievement to targets and could compare the subject matrices to the national transition matrices produced by the DfE.  Further analysis can then be completed to identify class trends or effective teaching and revision strategies that contributed to strong achievement in line with, or better than target.

You can also use your cursor icon to hover over the actual grades achieved colouring key. The bar chart will highlight the distribution of values for that grade, helping to identify the spread of data and potential strengths or weaknesses across prior attainment groups requiring further investigation at student level.

You can also use your cursor icon to hover over a bar or the table value to identify more detailed information about the values or click on the table value to identify which student or students you are viewing.

If you then click on the name of the student, you will open the student overview page where you can further investigate the achievement of the individual student in more detail.

**Additional bar and pivot charts**

Another useful bar and pivot chart is shown below. This chart displays the residual band information based upon your residual settings.

| Row | Column | Data | Aggregation |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| ***Residual Band – Current to Target*** |  |  |  |
| Subject: Grade/level: Residual Band: Current Grade – Target: GO 4 Schools: Current model | Subje ct: Group(s) | Subject: Group(s) | Count |
