First I created the your schedule table. Then I opened two psql sessions...

Session A                Session B

BEGIN;
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
DELETE FROM schedule WHERE studentid = 1;
INSERT INTO schedule VALUES (1, 1, 0, 0);

                         BEGIN;
                         SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE;
                         DELETE FROM schedule WHERE studentid = 1;
                         -- if there existed records for this delete,
                         -- session B will now wait for session A to
                         -- commit/rollback and error out on commit;
                         -- otherwise no error


COMMIT;
                         INSERT INTO schedule VALUES (1, 1, 0, 0);
                         COMMIT;


You can also try and rollback the first transaction etc.

Again, what really helps is:
ALTER TABLE schedule ADD CONSTRAINT uniq_schedule UNIQUE (studentid,
groupid);
