OECD: Mexico example of resilience in learning according to Schleicher

Andreas Schleicher, director of the Education division of the OECD, dedicated a seven-minute video message to Mexico to analyze the Pisa 2025 results. The expert defined the country as an example of resilience in the face of global learning decline, highlighting how the national system has kept performance in science and reading constant since 2012.

“My heartfelt congratulations to the teachers, school leaders, students and families of Mexico, because there is an important story in the latest Pisa results,” the manager declared. The organization appreciates not only the knowledge acquired, but the attitude of the students, described as curious and capable of asking the right questions in the era of artificial intelligence.

A solid human support network and notable social inclusion contribute to these results, Schleicher said. Between 2015 and 2025, Mexico integrated many young people from disadvantaged backgrounds without widening the achievement gap, an achievement favored by less segregation in classrooms and an equitable distribution of teaching staff.
