How to export Subject Choices

The Export Subject Choices feature generates a comprehensive Excel-based diagnostic tool containing learner and educator subject data. It uses pivot tables to provide high-level summaries and allows drill-down into detailed records for academic planning, timetable verification, and statutory compliance.

  2. Choose Current Learners or All Learners (includes learners who left during the selected period).

How do I use the Excel diagnostic tool?

  1. Click the yellow Enable Editing bar at the top to unlock the interactive features.

  2. On the Index sheet, click the Go link next to the report you want to view.

  3. The summary pivot table is displayed. To see the individual learners or educators behind a total, double-click any number in the pivot table — a new detail sheet is generated automatically.

Frequently asked questions

Who can access this export?

Only users with Excel Export rights on their user profile can see and use this function. The school's Superuser must assign this right. Note: enabling Excel export amends the agreement between d6 Education and the school, as the school assumes full data protection responsibility under POPIA once data is exported to a local device.

Does the export update automatically when I make changes in d6?

No. Each export is a static snapshot of the data at the time of export. If changes are made to subject choices in d6+ afterwards, a new export must be generated to reflect those changes.

What is the difference between Current Learners and All Learners?

Current Learners only includes learners who are actively enrolled at the time of export. All Learners also includes learners who left the school during the selected term, which is useful for audit or compliance reporting.
