This membership enables effective recording, monitoring, and processing of the programme and certification, while also establishing a direct connection with Team Teach for ongoing support to your organisation and staff team.

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.
