Abstract :
Despite being one of the most important achievements of humanity and having significant potential for educating societies, the school, due to the inappropriate behaviours and structures imposed on it, has lost its ability to play its role fully and is considered by a pessimistic group of thinkers to be an ineffective or even sometimes ineffective institution. It seems that the main reason for such perceptions is the lack of a correct understanding of the phenomenon of school. Utilising Heidegger's thoughts is a way to pay attention to school as a phenomenon so that while putting aside the prevailing structure of schools, we do not fall into the path of radicalism and deschooling society - as Ivan Illich put it - but rather take the school out of the scientific institution and define it as a social institution deschooling the school. It is the deschooling of the school itself that can actualize the true capacities of the school. From Heidegger's point of view, as long as the school is considered a scientific institution, it takes away the opportunity for students to speak, while the school is a place for learning to think, by providing the opportunity for students to speak. The school is an arena, an arena where the school and the teacher, by creating the opportunity for students to learn and speak, play the most important role in giving authenticity to their lives.
