How about what the svnbook describes here?

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.serverconfig.svnserve.html#svn.serverconfig.svnserve.sshtricks

That is, have a single user access the repository (and make the
repository wholly owned by that user), and then drop your students'
ssh keys (and custom commands) into the user's authorized_keys file.
