Hi Edel,
 
Its kind of difficult to know what you should do here. If you wish to ban
them from downloading stuff from the net then you have to take charge of
downloading that necessary stuff they want for school projects. If you are
going to allow them to download items for school work then you are still
leaving your computer open  up for mischief.
I think that maybe you could  stop items such as MP3's and other executable
files from coming in but apart from that you will have to take charge of the
job yourself for complete peace of mind.
 
Paul.
