Working on a small project, new to this, but would highly appreciate the help.

Hey world, hope everyone is having a nice day.  I have just been assigned a task for a school. The goal they want to achieve is being able to monitor the students iPad's within the classroom. I done a little research and came across this, I am just wondering am I going down the right path and if not can someone point in the right one. 

 

The tasks at hand would be,

 

Task 1 - to control all iPads from a desktop. So if the teacher puts google on their desktop it will come up on all iPads. Is this possible? 

Task 2 - to block or restrict certain apps on the iPads. 

 

Again any help would be highly appreciated.

Kind of a big deal

Task 2. You are able to disable the app store and push the apps you want with the Meraki MDM.

As @kYutobi Cisco Meraki SM/ MDM can assist you managing the iPad's with ease.

You can definitely do the second task with systems manager.  I think for the first task you would need to use some type of screen sharing solution.
