In that case you might be better off spending on cheap film cameras but getting them to share (which is what we had to do at school).
Minolta MD and Canon FD/FL are obsolete mounts whose lenses can't be used for digital.
I picked up a Minolta XG-M with an 50/1.4 for £22 (inc. postage) off ebay.
You could get a variety of these kinds of cameras quite quickly, although of course some will be duds but at such a price that's no real problem. They bring their own film and get it devved for themselves (off-loading the cost which in anycase is for their own photos), and you get them to make notes for every shot and provide the scanner.
The XG-M, for example, has full manual as well as AV and an EV dial and, most importantly, a dof preview button.
We devved out own negs and printed (B&W).
