Manitoba EIS: Student Enrolment
File Name: xxxxenr.asc (where xxxx is the school number)
The Student Enrolment file contains the student enrolment information as of September 30 and is used for determining grants and funding. Maplewood creates the file for each school, and the file is imported into the EIS collection tool. The division is responsible for submitting this information to the department each October, so please follow any additional instructions provided by the school division.
1. Check Student Information
Before the file can be created, please be sure to review the Student Detail Record portion of the chart at the end of this document to ensure accuracy for those students enrolled in the school on September 30th.
2. Create the Student Enrolment File (after September 30th)
Note: All students who are part of the school's enrolment on September 30th will be included, unless the Enrolled Pupil box is not checked in the student's enrolment record. Any students excluded for this reason will be identified when the file is created.
3. Correct Information
Make necessary changes to the student information and then recreate the file (Step 2).
4. Import the file into EIS Collection Program
Follow the instructions in the department's EIS Collection manual to import the file created in step 2. The name of the file is ####ENR.ASC where #### is your school identification number.
5. Export the File to send to your Division Office (or directly to the department if an independent school)
From the EIS Collection Program, you will create a file that is sent to your division office or directly to Manitoba Education and Training (independent schools only). Please refer to the EIS Manual for instructions.
