I think the best way to remedy this issue would be to integrate the school server directly into the build server (much like they have it on Stym's), that way the students are immersed into the community of more experienced redstoners, instead of being segregated into their own little room to ponder their existence alone (kinda). The idea would be to have special plots on the build server for the students so they can build with the rest of us (they would have the same permissions as on the school server). Then there would be some extra commands for members to help with teaching/dealing with them (such as possibly a mute command for members to mute them?).
I think students would learn more if they were more inspired by the work around them. The world of the school server is rather bare, and to be honest, not very impressive. I remember the RDF school server had a ton of big imposing redstone projects really close to spawn (that's because redstonewarrior, darkroom, etc had plots next to spawn). And people there generally built more as well. However, on our school server most plots contain a single adder and maybe a 7-seg.
