Team Teach training offers a transformative approach to supporting children and young people across education and healthcare settings. It promotes positive behaviour support and interventions within a legal framework, aiming to minimise risk and reduce unnecessary restrictive practices.
This programme equips staff with the skills to understand behaviour as a form of communication, alongside respectful, supportive, and practical strategies for prevention, de-escalation, and crisis intervention. It fosters a culture of collaboration, encouraging individuals to recognise the needs of those they work with, offer appropriate support, and accept help when needed.
Each course is designed and tailored to meet the specific needs of individual settings. We visit your organisation to discuss which aspects of Team Teach training should be prioritised, ensuring a truly bespoke experience.
At FOCUSS, our dedicated team of trainers has successfully trained approximately 35,000 staff over the past 22 years, strengthening knowledge, confidence, and practical skills.

What is the Restraint Reduction Network (RRN)?
The RRN is a UK-based charity aiming to reduce and prevent the use of unnecessary restrictive practices. The Restraint Reduction Network Training Standards are a set of ethical training standards which were commissioned by Public Health England in 2019. They were co-produced with people who had lived experience of restraint.
Training can be certified through Bild Association of Certified Training (BildACT), which holds a license from RRN). Certification means an organisation has been audited to confirm it conforms to a set of standards – in this case, the RRN standards. This means that BildACT certified the training complies with the RRN standards. For training to be certified, the training provider, approved curricula and authorised trainers have been scrutinised and found to have met the requirements.
Accreditation is an oversight role, underpinning the quality, impartiality and competence of a certification process. ICM Accredited training has been audited against the Prevention and Management of Work Related Violence – a process of risk assessment guidance by the Health and Safety Executive.
