You can do this with task scheduler in group policy also. Also from the top of my head you can schedule package deployments in mecm so create a bat file to power down a wrap it in a package and deploy to desired device collection

[pablo007]

you need to create a new package from within the software library with a command line shutdown-exe -t0, see here for instructions

set up a batch file on a server with shutdown.exe /s /m \\pc name /t 0 use excel to concatenate the machine names in from ad and paste into the batch file and run as a scheduled task

I agree with the group policy approach. Create a task schedule running the command.

Shutdown.exe -s -t 0

 

You can pin this to a security group that has a list of computers in. Will make it easy to add and remove which computers get shutdown.

Another option is use classroom management which will serve many positive purpose to your working day and the teacher day. software the likes of abtutor, netsupport, impero, etc to run a shutdown on a schedule.

 

Also these software will allow remote support, inventry, classroom management, safeguarding and the list continues

Thanks for the help guys, still can't get it done on SCCM. I think I will try GPO.

gpo can be restrictive if you need to change the time, a couple of batch files and a task sequence are easier

I’m fairly certain SCCM blocks shutdown commands, only allows a reboot.
