The Course:

A toolkit of holistic strategies on de-escalation and crisis intervention, both verbal and non-verbal for supporting and reducing instances of disruptive and distressed behaviours.

This course will equip individuals with an understanding of the values and philosophy of the Team Teach approach to behaviour support. We are motivated by the need to support the individual with the aim of keeping those who have become distressed safe, as well as those around them.

We believe that all behaviour is communication being driven by experiences and emotions. We deliver a toolkit approach that is 95% understanding behaviours and encouraging de-escalation. The 5% assesses the need for physical intervention in conjunction with a need’s analysis.

Once you have completed the training you will be provided with access to the Team Teach Connect platform - There is a standing charge of £180 for which your school will be invoiced directly.

This training is for staff in ODST schools only.
