Hi Dave,
Activation Lock is disabled by default on supervised devices - even if the user enables Find My iPad.
There is an MDM command (not a profile) that can enable activation lock on supervised devices, but I am not aware of any MDM vendors that currently support this.

As you know, once the Activation Lock is set up, the device cannot be restored without having the Apple ID used to set up. We haven’t had this come up yet, but I can anticipate it happening, if only inadvertently - it’s already been reported by another school in the Apple Communities - and we’d like to know what we could do in such a situation. I don’t see any ability in Configurator 1.4 to lock out this feature on a managed iPad, but perhaps I’m just not seeing it.
