After slowing for the final approach at 4;000 feet; an A320 ECAM alerted engine 1 thrust lever disagreement. The ECAM procedure was completed and the approach continued with the engine at idle. Maintenance found a failed thrust level angle (tla) indicator sensor.

Narrative:
After turning base; we were given a speed of 170 KIAS. Once we had slowed and were about to make our turn to final; the number one engine didn't spool up again. An ECAM alerted us to a discontinuity between the position of the thrust levers and the thrust selection sent to the fadec (number 1 thrust selection was indicating idle while thrust lever was in the climb detent). After referencing the QRH and the A320 landing app; the captain elected to continue the approach and we landed without incident. Thrust lever position sensor failure.
