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