Joining Tables to Retrieve Data

I have three tables that link together. What I want to do is to generate a report card for all the students in a class.

table students_info

name      sex age students_ID
--------- --- --- -----------
Kinsley   M    12           1
Michael   m    12           2
Rhianna   f    22           3

Table scores_panel

1stCA 2ndCA exam students_ID subjectID
----- ----- ---- ----------- ---------
   23    15   42           1         1
   10    12    7           1         2
   43    15   62           1         3
   10    12   27           2         1
   10    12   57           2         2
   23    15   12           2         3
   11    12   27           3         1
   04    12   57           3         2
   13    25   12           3         3

Table subject

subjectname subjectID
----------- ---------
english             1
maths               2
biology             3

I want my result to look like this:

NAME KINSLEY
SEX M
AGE 12

and report card follow

subject   1stCA 2ndCA EXAM
--------- ----- ----- ----
english      23    15   42
maths        10    12    7
Biology      43    15   62

... and so on for all students

only one subject and scores retrieved instead of all 

<?php
include("connect.php");

$generate="SELECT students_info.name, subject.subjectname, scores_panel.1stCA, scores_panel.2ndCA, scores_panel.EXAM
FROM
students_info
LEFT JOIN
scores_panel
ON students_info.students_ID=scores_panel.students_ID
LEFT JOIN
subject
ON
subject.subjectID=scores_panel.subjectID ";

$fetch=mysql_query($generate);
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($fetch)or die(mysql_error()))
{
?>
**NAME:** 
<?PHP echo $row['name']; ?>
subject 1stCA 2ndCA EXAM
----------
<?PHP echo $row['subjectname']; ?>
<?PHP echo $row['1stCA']; ?>     
<?PHP echo $row['2ndCA']; ?>   
<?PHP echo $row['EXAM']; ?>

THIS IS YOUR REPORT CARD 
<?PHP } ?>

It works, but displays only one subject for each student, instead of something like this:

  NAME KINSLEY
    SEX M
    AGE 12

and report card follow

subject   1stCA 2ndCA EXAM
--------- ----- ----- ----
english      23    15   42
maths        10    12    7
Biology      43    15   62


  NAME Rhianna 
    SEX F
    AGE 22

and report card follow

subject   1stCA 2ndCA EXAM
--------- ----- ----- ----
english      11    12   27
maths        04    12    57
Biology      13    25   12

... and so on for all students.

Here is SQLFiddle

And Query is

SELECT T1.NAME, T1.SEX, T1.AGE, T2.EXAM, T3.SUBNAME, T2.1CA, T2.2CA
   FROM TAB1 AS T1 LEFT JOIN TAB2 AS T2 ON T1.STUDENT_ID = T2.STUDENT_ID
      LEFT JOIN TAB3 AS T3 ON T2.SUBJ_ID = T3.SUBID;

Simple MySQL left join should solve this:

SELECT
st.name, st.sex, st.age,
sub.subjectname,
sc.1stCA, sc.2ndCA, sc.exam
FROM scores_panel AS sc
LEFT JOIN subject AS sub ON sub.subjectID = sc.subjectID
LEFT JOIN students_info AS st ON st.students_ID = sc.students_ID

Have you red this? http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/join.html

If you already know about Table Joins, then you have to precise/show us what your problem is exactly (meaning what is the current status of your code)
