Abstract | This article explores the research on turning around low performing schools to summarize what we know, what we don't know, and what this means for scaling school turnaround efforts. "School turnaround" is defined here as quick, dramatic gains in academic achievement for persistently low performing schools. The article first considers the case set out in a recent paper and then expands the discussion to explore the scalability of strategies for turning schools around. Following this paper, it appears that chartering alone is not enough to effect turnaround. Other existing turnaround options have not clearly led to successful turnaround at scale, but research does suggest turnaround practices and approaches to scaling. (Contains 2 tables.)
