All-Subject vs All Subjects
I saw a banner listed at an English Centre with 'All-Subject' heading & a list grades & classes underneath.
I asked the Centre regarding this & why not 'All Subjects'. They said that it was correct because it was in reference to a cluster of subjects (if I understand them right). I was confused with what they were saying as I tried to understand them.
If you don't mind, kindly enlighten me on this.

0"All-subject" would normally be adjectival, and would normally come before a noun to modify it. It could be that in this case such a noun is implied but omitted; for example, it implies "all-subject results" or "all-subject grades". That's the only explanation I can think of at the moment.
