Psychological safety and effective risk management decisions create a virtuous cycle, empowering individuals to learn from failures and continuously improve.

Teach For All, a global network of independent organisations working to expand educational opportunities, places a strong emphasis on learning and collaboration. In the face of challenges and failures, Teach For All encourages its network partners to openly share their experiences and insights. Regular forums and conferences provide spaces for educators and leaders to discuss failures, learn from one another, and collectively develop strategies for improvement. This collaborative and psychologically safe environment contributes to the continuous improvement of educational initiatives around the world.

Here, it is worth noting that Nayeli Rodriguez Leonardo, Research Manager at Enseña por México, has stated that: “Promoting a culture of evidence-based decision-making will enable us to work in a more coordinated way, and to gain a common understanding of many aspects of our work, such as: when they happen, our errors, low numbers, or unexpected results are not failures, but opportunities to learn” (Leonardo, 2021).
