Have tried changing it in system preferences?
Beyond that look into managed user accounts and creating user account templates in OS X server.
You might not need a programmatic solution. Sounds like an account solution.
But, it's always easy to take a photo and you will still need to do something about apps like QuickTime X and Grab.
They're bundled.
You'll also need to look at all other apps and browser plugins.
The worst part is potentially for accessibility functionality. That may also run you into a wall if legal compliance in various countries.
Oh there is also Automator and AppleScript and screenshots can be done via terminal.
Quite a rabbit hole you're in.

It would appear that setting the sharing type on the main window (which covers the entire screen) to none doesn't completely do it. It appears that Shift-Cmd-3 still performs a screen shot. I've already tried capturing keystrokes and it appears these system-level hot-key combinations aren't able to be cleanly intercepted. More than that, I would think this is overkill -- I would think there would be a simple way to turn off the ability for outside sources to grab contents of an app.
