(They likely didn't fork it to make it standalone, you can do that from the config. The article doesn't mention that as a reason, either.)

They changed the login, so that you can't use anyother client.
They changed the contact possibilities, so that conact can only be made on invite only.

I read an interview with the responsible vicr-principal of the school today [1].
From my understanding the only created QR Codes that included login and password (minus last 4 digits) and the client used this info to send the request to a standard matrix server. The users only had to type in the last 4 digits manually.
Everything else can be configured via the matrix server config
