I've had SO MANY school dreams, and they're always like that! I don't have a notebook and I try to borrow some paper form somebody, but all I can get is tattered torn paper... or I don't have a pencil and can't find one... I have no clothes on... can't find my locker or don't remember the combination...
I believe these represent a fear of not being prepared for some aspect of your life. To me it seems these dreams happen when I feel like I SHOULD be doing something different, or trying harder than I am. I think school represents preparation for life, or the authoritarian nature of working life. Dreaming of being in school (at least in these kind of dreams) seems to mean that you're thinking about your situation - in terms of social or job-related things. I don't think I'm making this very clear!
What I'm trying so poorly to say is... these dreams seem to be telling me that I feel I should better my life... get a better job or somehow change my situation in life.
In your case it 's probably because you've been wanting to go back to school but you're not. maybe you feel anxiety over that.
Got it...
Dreaming of being at school without _____________ (book, paper, pen etc) is anxiety over being in your life without ___________ (good job, good marriage or partner, good car, etc). And in your specific case I'd say it's because you WANT to go to school but you're not, so some part of you feels that you're wasting time when you should be in school This doesn't mean you really SHOULD be in school, only that some part of you THINKS you should.
Wow, I sure do ramble on and make a mess of things when I don't quite know what I'm trying to say, don't I?
