We already do this in our K-12 School district. :)

We handle the download of the image and the burn. All the 
student/faculty has to do is supply a CD. We have some restrictions on
the whole thing, but mainly as long as we don't break the license of
the software. So far, it has been mainly Open-Source projects and ISO
downloads...

Debian is at the top of the list!
