Year 4 Times Table check:

The Multiplication Table Check (MTC) is a Key Stage 2 online assessment which is taken by children at the end of Year Four, in June. Children will be asked to answer 25 questions, which will be on times tables from two to twelve. They are given six seconds to answer each question, with a three second rest between each question. The test lasts less than five minutes and will be taken on iPads in school. 

The purpose of this test is to ensure that times table knowledge is at the expected level, so children are prepared to go into Upper Key Stage 2. Children should be fluent in their times tables from two to twelve. This check allows the school to see where there are gaps in times table knowledge and put the appropriate interventions in place.
