Hey im trying to install windows 10 on the classroom pc but it says "windows cannot be installed to this drive. The selected disk is of the GPT partition style

 

Please help thx

 

You need the BIOS to be in UEFI mode to boot a GPT partition. If you're installing Windows you should let windows erase and reformat the drive anyway.

I think it worked i formated all drives including the recovery and then made a new called space it saying installing windows. 

My school blocked everything on the pc from the administration and every reboot the pc would restart i think its working

You need to wipe out the existing partition then.
