There's too many and nowhere near enough teachers.
I worked in the adult english program at my current school before being transferred to kindergarten, my class size jumped from 10 students to over 40. If I didn't have my TA's, I don't think I could handle it, it's an absolute nightmare compared to adults.
I had a few friends who have worked in kindergarten programs at other schools and they all said the same thing, huge class sizes. I heard a particular horror story from a Canadian teacher about having over 60 kids in a classroom intended for about 20.
