Your app can't do such actions. However, since you are discussing an Enterprise App, have you considered Apple Configurator or other MDM solutions to block access to other apps?

As your link states, you can also use Guided Access and Parental Controls to disable notifications.

You can also require Airplane Mode be turned on and WiFi be disabled before whatever functionality you need is set, and if the user violates any such terms, then you disable your app until, for instance, a proctor gives a code to reactivate it.

If App has to go to app store

Prevent app from exiting - not possible

Access other app - MDM approach can hide the App
