teaching assistant with a degree?

Hi there. I have a question regarding Teaching assistants. If you currently work as a TA, did you do a special TA course, or do you have a degree and additional classroom experience?

really want a post for SEND TA. i have a psychology degree and 2 months worth of classrooms experience (but nothing with SEN), how can I be in a better place for a TA job? doing a TA course is lower than a degree...
I applied for a teaching assistant job. Was offered it with no qualifications specific to the role. Turned it down though because the salary worked out at minimum wage.
I got in with just my degree and CRB check. It is pretty much minimum wage, but you get good experience moving forward.
