I am a teacher and some colleges an i use qtcreator for some time now:
Just tell the students to do build/"clean all" before submitting the 
whole directory as a zip, rar or tar.gz file. You have to delete the 
Makefile (which gets not cleaned) or call build/"run qmake" to use the 
project.

It is possible, at least in linux, to use "make dist" to create a 
.tar.gz file -- but this rather unusable because it includes a lot of 
unneeded stuff, but it is simple to use on the command line, includes 
the version number, but there is no menu entry in qtcreator.

Another suggestion would be to use git, subversion or any other version 
control system. You get the additional benefit of teaching about version 
control, the pupils don't lose work and sometimes the revision history 
gives some hints about the connections between different students.
