I am not sure, if your comment was ment seriously, since you probably know
that there is a good collection at apps.kde.com ;-) (BTW - apps.kde.com is
great. Congrats!)
There is linuxforkids.org with a lot of software, but I recently heard, that
some of the listed apps don't work, which is acceptable to developers, but
not to schools. annma tested some of them, you can read the reports at
http://women.kde.org/projects/reviews/edutainment.html

this weeks report:

On a linux congress I recently met 2 people involved in school projects. One
was a professor from France: Bernard Lang (European Union Initiatives for
Evolution and Consolidation of the Use of Free Software) and the other one
was José Neif (Pepe) from the mexican school project.
Bernard told me, that they have big problems with linux in France, because
the companies making the school software refuse to make versions for linux
too. So if we can provide apropiate kde apps, that would probably help a lot.
If it is needed, I can establish a contact to these people.

Yes, that sounds very interesting.
