[Answered ]-Django forms and registration: insert data to other tables

I had a similar issue. Solved it by making the model look a little different:

class Student(User):
nr_indeksu = models.BigIntegerField()

def __unicode__(self):
    return unicode(self.user)

This way, when you define the Django form, all needed fields will be rendered for this model. This is because you are saying The student is a user , as opossed to the former the student has a user

The form could look like:

class StudentForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Student

Edit:
Use a similar approach for teacher model.
If you want to avoid the rendering of some fields, use the fields attribute in the Meta class.

Second Edit:
If you want to preserve the validations and checks of the User form, the form should also inherit from UserCreationForm.
