HOW DO WE FOCUS ON PASS/FAIL IN SCHOOL WITHOUT CREATING NEGATIVITY AROUND MISTAKES

The education system's focus on pass/fail can create anxiety and fear around mistakes. But mistakes are essential for learning and growth. We need to shift the narrative from "failure is bad" to "failure is feedback." When students understand that mistakes are part of the learning process, they become more willing to take risks and try new things. This mindset shift requires support from educators, parents, and the broader community to create environments where learning from failure is celebrated.
