Hello there,

Windows 10 in S Mode is not compatible with the full version of Office 365.

As far as I know, Windows 10 S Mode only allows for installing Microsoft-verified apps from the Microsoft Store and requires Microsoft Edge for safe browsing. Could Office 365 (Version 1808) be installed smoothly on your PCs?
