BIOS Opening Issue

Hello,

I recently retrieved my son's college PC (Toshiba Ordival).
I found how to reset it and created a bootable USB stick of Ubuntu on my computer. The PC is running Windows 10.

I wanted to try booting from my USB stick so that I can use Linux on this device, but I cannot access the BIOS.

When I restart the PC, a blue screen appears with "Restarting" and then a black screen, immediately followed by the welcome menu.
So I cannot access the BIOS.

Do you have a solution to access that menu and/or boot from my USB stick without the BIOS?

Thank you for your responses.

PS: Sorry for the chosen forum, I couldn't find anything more suitable :(

    Hello. These PCs are locked by the National Education.
    Try to contact a tech teacher, they are in charge of the PCs.
    Be careful, these PCs are often garbage (32 Go eMMc). Maybe it would work with Linux.

    So, is there any way to unlock all of this by myself?

    Thank you for your quick response :D
