Why don't you let the students choose their own framework? Maybe I'm fluent in Python, It'd be pretty annoying having to learn Ruby/PHP/Java first instead of focusing on my SaaS project. The best framework for any job is the framework you know the best. I don't know Java, but I can accomplish the same with Laravel than with Rails, but with Laravel it will take a fraction of the time. Not because it's somehow 'better' than Rails, but because I know it better. I can't think of any benefit for you or your students that a restriction on language/framework would offer.
