What's wrong with using samba permissions?

Surely each user will have a username, just don't allow access to the file for any users but the teachers?

Windows permissions aren't THAT lax!

Also note *well* the plain truth that there is *no* solution to users leaving this sensitive data unlocked and unattended - that has to be addressed with the users in question as a matter of policy and training.

I agree.

But there may be some kind of help to secure the files.

Just lock the file after some period of time - say: 10 minutes of not using the application - requiring the password to access the file again.

Okay, the teacher could enter the password and leave the room just after that.

But that will not be the normal case.

Many applications do it that way (OS X for example, if you have a screensaver active requiring a password to deactivate or phpMyAdmin that asks you to login again after some period of time).
