2. The turnaround model An AUSL turnaround begins with new leaders, teachers and staff, additional programs and upgraded facilities, resulting in more opportunities for Chicago’s children. This proven method brings in highly qualified staff specially trained to work in low-performing schools to help meet the specific needs of those students. Turnarounds have a laser focus on driving student learning, providing additional academic support in core subjects, implementing a high-quality instruction and setting transparent goals for schools, staff and students to reach.
