In June 2020, a new Year 4 Multiplication Tables Check (MTC) will become statutory across the UK.

The purpose of this assessment is to determine whether year 4 pupils can fluently recall their multiplication tables up to and including 12 x 12. The MTC will be delivered as an online, on-screen digital assessment and will take each pupil less than 5 minutes to complete on either a laptop or tablet.

Please see the parents’ guide below (released by the Standards and Testing Agency) which provides more information about this statutory assessment.

Also pupils have individual access to the Times Tables Rock Stars website to practise their skills (passwords available from their teacher) and they may also use this free website (www.mathsframe.co.uk) to practise the MTC in a similar format.
