How to Report on Behaviour Types by Subject(s)

This article explains how to create a custom report in Custom Report Writer to track the total number of behaviour types a student has had in a specific subject. It outlines the necessary permissions, steps to add the report column, and how to customise the report for multiple subjects or behaviour types.

If you want to see the total number of behaviour types a student has had in a subject, you'll be able to create this using Custom Report Writer.

Permissions

You'll need the General Admin: Export Data permission to create and manage custom reports in Custom Report Writer. If you don't have permission, you'll need to ask your admin team to give you permission using these instructions.

In Step 3 of creating your custom report, you'll need to add a report column for either Behaviour Type by subject (use this if you only want one subject) or Behaviour Type by subjects (use this if you want to combine multiple subjects) to your report by clicking and dragging to the added columns section on the right.

On the slide-over, you can set the dates, the behaviour type and the subject. The report column will be renamed to the behaviour type you choose, rather than displaying as Behaviour Type by subject(s).

If you want to report on multiple subjects or behaviour types:

• You will need to add the Behaviour Type by subject column again to set a separate column for a new subject or behaviour type (with this column type, you can't specify more than one subject)
• Or, you can use the Behaviour Type by subjects column type instead if you want to combine multiple subjects

You can add more columns to your report and continue through the rest of the steps to complete your report, or select Skip Setup Wizard to skip to the last step, where you can click Save & View Report.

This will give you a breakdown of how many incidents a student has had in each subject, so you could compare different behaviour types for one subject, like below.

Or you could compare the same behaviour types by different subjects like below.
