Manage and monitor Windows Laptops in a school environment

by m-widrig . Updated 13 years, 8 months ago

Dear reader,

I am responsible for managing 40 school laptops.

All of them are connected to Wifi network, and have either windows XP/Vista/7 installed.

I would like to establish a new system by way of which I will be able to:

Block system configuration for students
Software installations for students
Accessing inappropriate websites for students

and also if possible manage them from a central computer.

I was thinking of using Windows server as I still have licences for it but I do not have any experience using it and setting it up.

If you could please advise me.

Thanks in advance,

Lukas Max Widrig

PS: I have tried to simply use the windows account system and do a admin account and a students account but I encountered problems such as when I install a software on the admin account, it will not be installed on the students account. Also the acount control system varies between Windows Xp, Vista and 7.
