Team Teach Training
Behaviour Support Training tailored to your setting
All behaviour is a form of communication and at some point in our personal or professional lives, we can all expect to come across someone who is struggling to communicate, is emotionally overwhelmed, or is in distress. What that person needs in that moment is support; someone who can look beyond the behaviour, understand what is being communicated, and respond calmly and positively.
That’s where Team Teach training can help. It really is for everyone.
Team Teach Behaviour Support Training courses provide a holistic approach to supporting behaviour for individuals and organisations working with children and adults, in education, youth care and adult care settings.
Our accredited, award-winning training helps your organisation build strong relationships and transform challenging situations into positive outcomes. We focus on teamwork and communication, to foster supportive working practices and recognise the needs of distressed individuals.
With over 25 years’ experience, we deliver respectful, accessible and practical behaviour support training that is person-centred, understanding that behaviour is driven by feelings, and the impact past experiences can have on emotions.
Our training is suitable for professionals working in all phases of Education and Health and Social Care settings, both Adult Care and Children and Youth Services.
Our accessible courses are available in-person and online, as public and private courses.
Behaviour Support Training
(Levels 1, 2 & Advanced)
Our flagship course and where the Team Teach journey begins
Our toolkit approach gives practical de-escalation and intervention strategies you can use to minimise risk and reduce conflict safely and respectfully in your setting. Build individual confidence and expertise so everyone knows how to support 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 the individuals they support.
Available at multiple levels and tailored to your organisation to meet different needs.
Everyone in your organisation can benefit from behaviour training. We carefully design each programme to deliver proven, safe strategies suitable for anyone supporting behaviour.
Our courses equip individuals with a range of de-escalation and behaviour strategies delivered by expert trainers with extensive experience in both education and health and social care settings.
We offer a range of training options suitable for low to high-risk settings, including:
- Mainstream early years, primary and secondary schools
- SEND schools
- Pupil Referral Units
- Children’s hospitals
- Secure units
- Health care settings
- Adult learning and residential homes

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.
When adopted at both an organisational and individual level, Team Teach training can have enormous benefits for both staff and the individuals in your care.
Team Teach training can:
- Facilitate a shared language and ethos across your setting
- Reduce the need for restrictive interventions
- Equip staff with the confidence to support in any situation that arises
- Minimise the risk of escalation and ensure the welfare of individuals
- Help build a cohesive, positive approach to behaviour support
- Foster collaborative, effective teamwork
- Create strong, positive relationships between staff and individuals
- Ensure all situations are supported safely, consistently and positively
Team Teach training can lead to positive outcomes for all
All of our Team Teach courses equip people in a variety of settings with the tools they need to transform potentially challenging situations into positive outcomes.
By investing in training across a setting, we can identify the underlying causes of behaviour, intervene early to defuse escalating situations, forge strong relationships, and, ultimately, foster positive cultures through effective behaviour support.
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 provide effective support.
Build staff confidence
Our positive toolkit approach gives practical de-escalation and strategies you can use to minimise risk and reduce conflict safely and respectfully in your setting. Build individual confidence and expertise so everyone knows how to support 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 the individuals they support.
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 behaviour training teaches strategies that emphasise personal safety and the reduction of risk and restraint. Participants learn a wide range of authorised physical 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.
