Team Teach: About Us
Our mission is to empower individuals and organisations to go beyond traditional behaviour management. We focus on implementing strategies that not only lower risk but also strengthen relationships, minimising the need and use of physical intervention, and foster positive, supportive environments.
For over 25 years Team Teach has been the leading provider in behaviour support training across Education, Healthcare and Social Care.
- Moving beyond behaviour management, supporting individuals and organisations to use strategies that lower risk, build relationships, minimise physical intervention and create positive environments.
- Understanding all behaviour as a form of communication
- Building course content to meet the needs of your team.
- Building Team Cultures. We understand that members of your team may have worked in the industry for several years, and others recently joined. Our courses build clear lines of communication and teamwork from the offset.
- Trauma-informed approaches. We understand the importance of how trauma impacts an individual at every occurrence of their life, from their experiences and perceptions to their behaviour.
- Scenario-Driven. We understand that every organisation can have very different experiences. We draw your past, current and future scenarios into our learning, valuing the importance of care at every level.
Team Teach has developed strategies to move beyond behaviour management.
The Team Teach approach to strategic behaviour interventions extends beyond ‘behaviour management’. Promoting communication, consistent approaches, understanding and responding to a crisis situation in a wholistic way help us to intervene least invasively at the earliest opportunity, and in the most appropriate and respectful manor while maintaining the welbeing of staff and individuals we work with and support.
Recognising behavior as a form of communication, what that may behaviour present as depending on cognitive ability or impairment and engaging the best responses dependign on level of risk may be present allows us to focus wholly on our core ethos that 95% any intervention is de-escalation and restorative practices, and that any physical interventions, be they low-level or potentially more robust, are only ever engaged as a last resort.
A organisation-wide consistent approach help organisations to embed a person centred behaviour support toolkit to help staff and service users when individuals become dysregulated and distressed. Entirely complementary with recognised PBS frameworks, we have a ‘360 degree’ approach including debriefing, re-engaging relationships as well as reporting and recording, and post incident reflection.
