New method in Django 3 you can use Field choices Enumeration Types new update in django3 like this   from django db import models  class Status models TextChoices       UNPUBLISHED    UN    Unpublished      PUBLISHED    PB    Published    class Book models Model       status   models CharField          max length 2          choices Status choices          default Status UNPUBLISHED         django docs

If your choices are not pre-decided or they are coming from some other source  you can generate them in your view and pass it to the form    Example   views py   def my view request  interview pk       interview   Interview objects get pk interview pk      all rounds   interview round set order by  created at       all round names    rnd name for rnd in all rounds      form   forms AddRatingForRound all round names      return render request   add rating html     form   form   interview   interview   rounds   all rounds     forms py  class AddRatingForRound forms ModelForm        def   init   self  round list   args    kwargs           super AddRatingForRound  self    init    args    kwargs          self fields  name     forms ChoiceField choices tuple   name  name  for name in round list         class Meta          model   models RatingSheet         fields     name       template    lt form method  post  gt         csrf token           if interview                interview           endif           if rounds         lt hr gt             form as p             lt input type  submit  value  Submit    gt         else             lt h3 gt No rounds found lt  h3 gt         endif      lt  form gt

First I recommend you as  ChrisHuang-Leaver suggested to define a new file with all the choices you need it there  like choices py    STATUS CHOICES          1     Not relevant          2     Review          3     Maybe relevant          4     Relevant          5     Leading candidate      RELEVANCE CHOICES          1     Unread          2     Read        Now you need to import them on the models  so the code is easy to understand like this models py    from myApp choices import     class Profile models Model       user   models OneToOneField User          status   models IntegerField choices STATUS CHOICES  default 1         relevance   models IntegerField choices RELEVANCE CHOICES  default 1    And you have to import the choices in the forms py too   forms py   from myApp choices import     class CViewerForm forms Form        status   forms ChoiceField choices   STATUS CHOICES  label     initial     widget forms Select    required True      relevance   forms ChoiceField choices   RELEVANCE CHOICES  required True    Anyway you have an issue with your template  because you re not using any   form field    you generate a table but there is no inputs only hidden fields    When the user is staff you should generate as many input fields as users you can manage  I think django form is not the best solution for your situation    I think it will be better for you to use html form  so you can generate as many inputs using the boucle     for user in users list    and you generate input with an ID related to the user  and you can manage all of them in the view
