Hello and welcome to Year 4.

We have a very broad curriculum in Year 4 covering topics such as the Ancient Egyptians, Environmental Issues, Invasion Games and learning to play the Violin... to name a few!

Multiplication Tables Check - JUNE 2022

What is The Multiplication Tables Check?

The Multiplication Tables Check (MTC) is a key stage 2 assessment to be taken by pupils at the end of year 4 (in June). From the 2019 / 2020 academic year onwards. The purpose of the MTC is to make sure the times tables knowledge is at the expected level.

The MTC is an online test were the pupils are asked 25 questions on times tables 2 to 12. For every question you have 6 seconds to answer and in between the questions there is a 3 second rest. Questions about the 6, 7, 8, 9, and 12 times table come up more often. The questions are generated randomly based on the rules of the MTC.

How should we prepare?

A good way to prepare is start early and build a daily routine practising the times tables. In school, we practise daily and assess where children are up to weekly.
