If you use hierarchy and a matrix you could make this happen. 

 

So using a matrix visualization, put Subject in the columns, and then put Nationality AND Division in the rows. Put the grade in the values and calculate average.

 

Refer to this on how to then use the drill down within the heirarchy: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/consumer/end-user-drill

 

If you also want the original table, you could acheive this using a merged calculated column containing the name, division and nationality and put that on the top of the list in the Rows pane.

@DevadathanK You can rename a field in the values for each visual it is used in, select the matrix, then in the Visualizations click on the arrow next to 'Average of Subject' and select rename. 

 

Give kudos if that helped.
