There is an even easier way, in your anti virus, open up the firewall and block the steam application until he finishes his exams. By blocking the steam application, the anti virus will not allow any internet to the steam application file, therefore, he wont be able to play.

Edit: what type of anti virus does he have?

The easiest way would be to just take over his pc, make yourself the admin, and him a user with no privileges.
