Who is Team Teach training for?
Everyone in your organisation can benefit from positive behaviour training. We carefully design each programme to deliver proven, safe strategies suitable for anyone managing challenging behaviour.

With our award-winning training, all the professionals in your organisation will have the skills and strategies they need to support distressed individuals, from front-line staff to reception and support employees.
What will you learn from a Team Teach positive behaviour training course?
We believe all behaviour is communication driven by experiences and emotions. Our training programmes help you understand the drivers and motivations displayed by distressed individuals and learn positive ways to manage challenging situations.
Build staff confidence
Our positive toolkit approach gives practical de-escalation and crisis intervention strategies you can use to minimise risk and manage conflict safely and respectfully in your setting. Build individual confidence and expertise so everyone knows how to deal with challenging behaviour appropriately and consistently.
Use Team Teach training to develop your team dynamic and shared vision of how to support distressed individuals to create strong, positive relationships between staff and service users.
A toolkit of strategies
Team Teach training helps every individual in your organisation respond in a way that is reasonable, proportionate and necessary.
Our techniques promote a respectful, supportive approach. You will learn strategies that maintain positive relationships and encourage de-escalation together with a thorough needs analysis. For lower-risk settings this may include safe positive handling techniques, including personal safety, appropriate for the environment.
For higher-risk settings, our positive behaviour training teaches strategies that ensure personal safety and the reduction of risk and restraint. Participants learn a wide range of authorised physical restraint and handling techniques specifically designed to support and respond to distressed behaviour safely. This training includes relevant legal standards and expectations related to the use of force, and reporting, recording, monitoring and evaluating requirements.
