Team Teach About Us
For over 25 years, Team Teach has been a pioneer in behaviour support training across Education, Healthcare and all Social Services
Our mission is to support individuals and organisations in moving beyond behaviour management, using strategies that lower risk, build relationships, minimise physical intervention, and create positive environments
Team Teach has developed strategies to move beyond behaviour management
These strategies promote team building, personal safety, communication, and verbal and non-verbal de-escalation techniques. These techniques support behaviours, reducing risk and minimising the need for physical restrictive practices.
We believe that understanding behaviour triggers and recognising all behaviour as a form of communication is key, and in some settings, where appropriate, offer safe, respectful and minimal physical restrictive practices intervention skills as a last resort, with an emphasis on de-escalation strategies being 95% of our focus.
An Organisational Approach to Behaviour Support
We see this as just one part of a whole-service approach to behaviour support and we deliver a framework to support you to develop an ethos of acceptable and appropriate responses to distressed and dysregulated behaviours. These responses maintain positive relationships and ensure safety for all.
As such, our training packages are compatible with Positive Behavioural Support (PBS) approaches for individuals with a disability or additional learning needs.
Additionally, all training emphasises the importance of recording, reporting, monitoring, and evaluating of all incidents.
