The Sea View Trust’s Park Community Academy Delivers Accredited Team Teach Training to Support Education and Care Sectors Across Blackpool

With increasing regulatory focus from Ofsted, the Care Quality Commission (CQC), and Department for Education (DfE) statutory guidance, organisations supporting children, young people, and vulnerable adults are under growing pressure to implement safe, trauma-informed, and legally defensible behaviour support frameworks.

Through PCA’s localised delivery model, settings across multiple sectors can now access industry-leading, accredited training right on their doorstep, eliminating long-distance travel expenses and providing tailored, practical support rooted in local community needs.

Tailored Support Across Education, Childcare, and Adult Care Sectors

Team Teach training delivered via PCA is specially designed to equip staff teams across a wide spectrum of frontline care and learning environments, including:

• Schools & Educational Settings: Primary, secondary, special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) academies, alternative provisions, and early years settings. Training supports Headteachers, SENDCos, Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSLs), and TAs to meet Ofsted criteria for Behaviour & Attitudes and Leadership & Management.

• Children & Youth Residential Care Homes: Independent care homes, local authority provisions, and respite centers looking to align with Ofsted Social Care Common Inspection Framework (SCCIF) standards and Regulation 13 (Leadership and Management).

• Children & Youth Care Agencies: Supporting agency staff, outreach workers, and foster care teams with consistent, setting-wide de-escalation strategies.

• Adult & Elderly Residential Care Homes & Nursing Facilities: Equipping staff to support adults with complex needs, dementia, learning disabilities, or brain injuries, while meeting CQC requirements for safe, person-centered care.

• Adult Social Care & Supported Living Agencies: Building confidence in community support teams to promote independence, reduce distress, and uphold "least restrictive" practice guidelines.

95% De-escalation: Empowering Staff and Protecting Dignity

Unlike traditional intervention programs, Team Teach places 95% of its emphasis on non-verbal and verbal de-escalation, emotional regulation, and early trigger recognition. Physical intervention is taught strictly as a last resort to prevent harm, ensuring that all practices remain gentle, accredited, safe, and legally compliant.

By embedding Team Teach, settings benefit from:

• Reduced Incidents & Exclusions: Up to a 40% reduction in major behavioural incidents, keeping pupils and service users safe and engaged.

• Increased Staff Confidence & Wellbeing: Reduced burnout, lower shift stress, and improved staff retention.

• Inspection Readiness: Documented evidence for Ofsted and CQC inspectors demonstrating a proactive, setting-wide duty of care.

Expert-Led Delivery: Meet Lead Trainer Simon Wilson

Training quality is driven by practitioner expertise. PCA’s Team Teach courses are led by Simon Wilson, a recognized expert in positive behaviour support with an exceptional background:

• Over 20 Years as an Accredited Team Teach Trainer (currently holding Advanced Trainer status).

• 30+ Years of SEND Teaching and Pastoral Care Experience.

• 20 Years as Whole School Behaviour Manager, bringing real-world classroom and residential expertise directly into every training session.
