I Switzerland the reason is different: Computer in school are not bought by school managers anymore, but by IT managers of the local community. And these are buying only DELLs for more than 5 years now for all their usages, from secretary to servers, based on global contracts (including support and machines replacement). This also makes easier for them to maintain a limited number of standard configurations that they re-install if anything goes wrong.
Apple lost its position at the end of the Mac OS 8 era, when the system was not very stable and had performance issues. It will be very hard to recover. But for sure not impossible.
