to disable applescript

Monitoring a network of 600 high school students with iBooks. They have "student" accounts with limitations on the programs they can run. Students have figured out how to write an applescript (and use terminal) to tell computer to open their downloaded games, etc.

I have been using ARD to send a UNIX command (rm -rf /Applications/AppleScript ) with fair success. It doesn't always seem to work.
Questions:

1. Wondering if anyone has a suggestion for the next image (a net boot is not an option, simple finder is not preferred) to plug some of these holes so we can put limitations on the student iBooks without disabling them to the point where it is a glorified typewriter. (ie we limited terminal access but typing telnet: in the url bar of safari bypasses security.)

2. Wondering if there are any other folks out there who are working in high schools with 1:1 laptops interested in a more specific dialogue for our "unique" challenges that we face.


thanks
