I have downloaded k12ltsp. It is a pity we didn't discuss it last Monday
as I had brought the CD with me. I left it with Paul in the school for
them to experiment with. 
I am part way through setting it up here as a demo for the Carmarthenshire
secondary school technicians. It seems to work fairly well but is still
work in progress. I am not finding it very easy as it is based on Red Hat
and I usually use SuSE or debian. I hope to have some news on that
fairly soon. They have produced a new version since I downloaded it and I
am going to check out the differences now.
I will probably go back to working directly from the ltsp site as that
supports suse and debian as well as red hat.
