You're presenting a false dichotomy between building good products and being capable of fulfiling extremely burdensome (not to mention, expensive) compliance requirements from the EU.

We're perfectly qualified to build the core tech. We're just not paperwork experts. Are you suggesting if we can't do paperwork, we shouldn't build innovative products that improve educational outcomes?

Absolutely. You can build an innovative product, sure, but you can't refine it or support it the way it needs to be supported.

Perhaps you have other teams working on product management, customer success (odd term for education, but applicable), etc.? Are the grading rubrics tuned for each student, what they need, what's in their IEP or 509? What is your plan for handling the legal challenges when the system massively screws up?

This isn't a random B2B. This is a subtly very important influence on a great many actual humans.
