It's certainly nice to provide consistency between home and school.  You
might be interested in the OpenCD which provides windows versions of a lot
of the free software available in edubuntu.

It's probably asking too much to have students partition and install linux
on their home computers, but just adding openoffice and firefox on windows
is a lot simpler and will give you a lot fewer troubles.  There is also the
OpenEducation CD on that site.

The current testing release of edubuntu is called Gutsy.  It is due for
release in October so

A useful start might be to test it and report bugs you find in launchpad.
I'd suggest particularly testing LTSP if you can.
