I wasn't completely sure, how to say it perfectly gramatically myself,
so I asked my Japanese girlfriend. She said that you can translate the
sentences as follows:
If not taking the books with you was intentional then:
Hon / Shomotsu wo motte ikazu ni gakkou ni itta.
If it wasn't intentional (i.e. you forgot to take them):
Hon / Shomotsu wo motte iku no wo wasurete gakkou ni itta.
The second sentence in both cases is:
Isshoukenmei benkyou shita ga / noni, shiken ni ochita / goukaku
dekinakatta / shippai shita.
