Taking in consideration your db for simplicity I would go for nodejs and mongo, just because of the database layout that I see in my mind... But you should take a look to your db and see what you will need

I think NodeJS + MongoDB will be better since it is an educational web application and it can possibly have a bigger scale in time.
