I am having a bit of a problem trying to get a topic to hide/show depending on a custom user profile field. For context, my school is running an MBA program and the students can choose 3 electives. I would like to have a profile field (drop down or text input) where I can set it so that the electives I add to their profiles are the ones they have access to. At the moment, I have 2 fields: 'Transport Elective', and 'Health Elective'. My input is 1 or 0 to try and avoid typos.
I have a test student and I have set both of the fields to 1.
Inside my course I have created 2 topics: 'Elective - Transport', and 'Elective - Health'.
Going into the settings, I have both of them set to the following:
Student MUST match the following - User Profile Field 'Transport Elective' is equal to 1 (I have left the eye open)
My understanding is that this means that any user with the 'Transport Elective' field set to '1' will be able to see this topic, however, it is the opposite. I cannot seem to make the topic appear and it is driving me a little mad. I have tried multiple field types with mulitple variations of show/hide but it has defeated me.
I have read through this: https://docs.moodle.org/403/en/Restrict_access_settings and I believe I am following it correctly.
I have added some screenshots here:

I am using Moodle 4.3.3 (Build: 20240212) and PHP version 8.0.30
It is also a completely new Moodle, there is no student/tutor data so I am happy to give access if it makes things easier? I'm completely stumped so any help/pointers would be much apprecaited.
Thanks
