There is definitly a better way of doing this!
In the commands by which character's can learn skills, do a check
if (spell_info[skillnum].level[GET_CLASS(ch)] > GET_LEVEL(ch)){
send_to_char("You cant learn that skill!", ch);
return;
}

incidently, feel free to use my spellbook code (i havn't coded scribe yet,
so that's up to you... ) This code uses study to set a character's spells as
learned or not...i've heavily modified my spell system, so you might have to
port my code to what you have...spells are given to an object in it's exdescrs,
which is the only way to set them right now...(havn't coded scribe) You have
to define ITEM_SPELLBOOK and make spellbook objects for character's to learn
from.
