School roll return forms (July 2025) Data Services

School roll return forms for July and historical July roll return forms may be downloaded from here. Other data collection forms can be found on the Collection Forms index page.

Collection forms

If your school uses a Student Management System (SMS), you should use this to submit your roll return to the Ministry.

If your school does not use an SMS, use the template form below. Please note the roll count date for this year is 26 June and completed forms must be received by the Data team no later than 03 July 2025. Please submit via the Secure Data Portal.

When using the form, read and follow the Instructions tab. Please ensure you enter your school number on the front page and once completed, sign the declaration tab before sending – this is an audit requirement. In the declaration tab you also need to provide a response on whether your school has decided to opt-in to the Donations Scheme for 2026. We will follow up with you if this is not completed or if your response is invalid based on your school’s Equity Index or authority.

If you have any further questions regarding the donations scheme, please see our website or contact the team at school.donations@education.govt.nz
