I guarantee you that this is not an uninformed comment. Exactly the opposite.

All I'll tell you is:

a) you're failing at stopping malicious internal actors you're simply fixing tick boxes

b) most school networks are a complete nightmare or worse laughable with next to no separation of resources (marking a drive as hidden on windows isn't secure)

c) maintaining an adult block isn't something to be proud of, there's services that do that for free at the perimeter they're called firewalls, deploy and forget, if that's not the case you are doing it wrong.

d) oh fudjing wow you wrote a script. This makes you a l33t sysadmin among your peers... Try taking to someone who deploys Linux at scale, this is Tuesday morning to them.

Stop blaming the teachers, and while we're at it, train them to not get fished by the smart kids...
