the way around this is to create a Microsoft Account for each user, just like an AppleID for each user or a Google Playstore account for each user

MSAs were never designed to be shared across different users

We will be rolling out an Education Store to Windows 10 in 3 months which will allow you to control this using Microsoft Azure AD accounts
