Important message for Year 4

The Multiplication Tables Check (MTC) is a key stage 2 assessment to be taken by pupils at the end of year 4 (in June). The MTC’s purpose is to ensure the times tables knowledge is at the expected level. In the 2023/2024 academic year, the multiplication tables check (MTC) became statutory for primary schools.

The Multiplication Times Tables Check is an online test where 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.

Click on the Trophy cabinet tab and create a free account so that you can collect trophies in a virtual cabinet as you improve your timestables.

Other websites that can be used to get yourself ready for the test are, Timestable Rockstars (Sound check area), Timestable games, MathsFrame Hit the Button,
