What Team Teach does

Team Teach Ltd is a UK-based private training organisation founded in 1997, headquartered in London, specialising in accredited behaviour support training for education, children's services and adult health/social care settings. Its core offering is the Team Teach Behaviour Support Training programme, an award-winning curriculum that combines evidence-based de-escalation strategies with physical intervention techniques that have undergone independent medical review. The company holds BILD ACT certification (complying with Restraint Reduction Network Training Standards — a requirement for NHS commissioned services), CPD accreditation, and a government-supported National Training Award. All training is delivered through a hybrid model combining direct public open-enrollment courses, bespoke private organisational courses, a trainer certification programme (producing 3,000+ certified trainers), and recurring reaccreditation services that create a subscription-style renewal stream.

Team Teach monetises through four primary revenue streams: per-course fees for public training (one-time), bespoke private course delivery (professional services/quote-based), one-time trainer certification fees, and recurring reaccreditation subscriptions. The supporting technology layer consists of the Team Teach Connect platform — a training management system with Organisation Admin functionality — and the Team Teach Knowledge Hub, a content library of 100+ hours of articles, eBooks, videos, templates and best practice guidance, accessible via web and a dedicated iOS/Android mobile app. The business operates globally with dedicated regional presence in the UK, Australia & New Zealand, the Middle East & North Africa, and additional reach into Ireland, continental Europe, Asia, the Caribbean and South America, training 100,000+ individuals annually across 10,000+ settings.

The company is independently owned (Team Teach Ltd, UK private limited company), with no parent, institutional investors, venture funding or public listing identified in the available data. There are no disclosed revenue figures, no M&A history, and no leadership team publicly listed beyond a Chief Product & Technology Officer. The primary named strategic partnerships are with the Institute of Conflict Management (medical review), BILD ACT Association (certification), CPD Accreditation Service (course material accreditation), and Behaviour Smart (technology/integration). No AI/ML capabilities, APIs, or proprietary data assets are disclosed, and the technology stack is best characterised as a conventional learning management platform rather than an AI-native product.

Others

• NASEN (National Association for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities): UK membership body supporting SEND practitioners through training, resources and policy advocacy. Overlaps with Team Teach's education segment as a thought leader and CPD provider rather than a direct course competitor.
• Restraint Reduction Network: UK charity that publishes the Restraint Reduction Network Training Standards underpinning Team Teach's BILD ACT certification. Acts as a standard-setting body and training provider directory rather than a direct competitor, but shapes Team Teach's addressable curriculum.
• British Institute of Learning Disabilities (BILD): UK organisation that sets and audits standards for positive behaviour support and runs the BILD ACT certification that Team Teach holds. Comparable as a sector ecosystem player; not a head-to-head competitor but a key stakeholder and standards-setter.

Direct peers

• The Makaton Charity: UK charity that delivers training in the Makaton communication programme to parents, carers, schools and health professionals. Comparable specialist training model targeting SEND and education segments, with similar trainer network and accreditation structure.
• Crisis Prevention Institute (CPI): US-headquartered global leader in crisis prevention and behaviour management training, including de-escalation and physical intervention programmes. Most direct competitor to Team Teach across education, healthcare and social care settings worldwide.
• Maybo: UK-based provider of positive behaviour support and conflict resolution training for health, social care, education and security sectors. Closest UK competitor to Team Teach, with overlapping course content and customer base.
• Elklan: UK training provider focused on speech, language and communication needs (SLCN), particularly in early years and SEND settings. Comparable to Team Teach in delivering accredited training to schools and care organisations through a network of licensed tutors.
• SecuriCare Solutions: UK-based specialist in physical intervention and behaviour management training for care, education and criminal justice settings. Overlaps directly with Team Teach's physical techniques and BILD ACT-aligned curriculum.

Broad incumbents

• National Autistic Society: Large UK charity providing autism-specific training, accreditation and resources to schools, employers and health professionals. Broader scope than Team Teach but overlaps in SEND behaviour-support training for education and adult care.

Emerging players

• Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) Providers: UK-based PBS framework training and certification providers (e.g., PBS Academy affiliated organisations) focused on evidence-based positive behaviour support. Competes methodologically with Team Teach's de-escalation curriculum, particularly in health and social care.
