Plan 2 loans: Do I have to fill in a tax return just because I have a student loan?

No, having a student loan is not in itself a reason for needing to complete a tax return. You usually only have to complete one if it is needed for your taxes and HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) ask you to do so (or you notify them that you have a tax reason for needing one).
