My grandmother already attended what is now the Dammrealschule and I completed my first four school years at the Dam Elementary School. That's why I still look with interest at both schools and especially at the school building, which I still think is very successful, apart from the unsuccessful extensions.

In the last few years I have also been able to observe how, slowly but surely, a fully-fledged university is literally springing up next to the dam schools.

However, to this day I have not been able to observe how the renovation work on the dam school, which has now been going on for years, is taking place. I also no longer remember which of the two construction measures was started first.

It now seems more likely to me that a full-fledged university will stand alongside the dam school before the dam students finally enjoy a functioning school building.

It is very disgraceful for our city that at least one generation of pupils from the Dammschulen will never have seen the inside of a school building after their school days, and their memories of their school days will be shaped by containers, construction sites and narrow spaces.

It is precisely the first years of human life that are formative for the further course of school and education. The architecture also plays a decisive role here, especially when it plays a key role in shaping the teaching and learning environment.

Those responsible at the Heilbronn University have recognized this and are making sure that everything is done, at least in terms of the building and the other infrastructure, to ensure the learning and educational success of the students.

What those responsible for the dam school building think remains a mystery to me.

"I thought the purpose of education was to learn to think for yourself."
