and how does it compare to what they get?

if your child has one to one, would you expect the TA to have some kind of sn/sen training?

is there somewhere I can read up on this/research it?

In an absolutely ideal world, all schools would be planned and built around the needs of the children, instead of the cheapest way to herd all children together and see who comes out top dog.
4 or 5 to a class, teachers not harrassed and not having to stick to stupid targets, a good all-round education for all children.
However within the current restraints, I would like my ds to have a constant 1:1, during breaks and lunch times, who would also come and see my ds during holiday periods. LSA should definately have sen training, which is up to date, and receive higher rate of pay.

I think depends on needs ... In an ideal world they'd all receive 1:1 or small groups of no more than 4 students
