Question:
Is there any religious prohibition against making a model of the Ka'bah to be used as an educational tool, given that it will not contain any depiction of beings with souls?

This was issued as a decision by the Committee of Senior Scholars prohibiting it, because this leads to superstitions, and because people seek blessing from this model or call upon it instead of Allah. These matters were the subject of a decision by the Committee of Senior Scholars prohibiting the making of a model. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
