Do you mean "are they allowed to", or "are they capable of"?

Hi...

 

It was more a question of if a class was regularly (every week) being taught around 2- 2 and half days a week by a HLTA, is that acceptable?

[cal3549 10]

HLTAs are perfectly capable of covering classes/ planning lessons - although it's more likely they're delivering a teacher's planning. Is it a temporary situation? Some parents may prefer their child be taught by a HLTA in a teachers absence, rather than a supply teacher who doesn't know the kids or the school.
