Multiplication Tables Check

In June, the children in year 4 will be tested on their multiplication knowledge. This is a statutory assessment which ensures the children are well prepared for the next stage of their mathematical learning. We do a lot of work in school to support children in their preparations for this assessment; any additional support you can provide at home towards their times tables knowledge will be so supportive to your child's progress. 

Please see the information sheet from the government regarding this test here

There will be an information meeting for parents on Tuesday 22nd September at 3.15pm explaining what happens and how you can support your child.

If you are unable to make it to the information meeting, here is some information that you might find useful from last years meeting - click here

As well as using Times Tables Rockstars regularly, below is a link to a website that replicates the MTC and is a useful tool to practise.
