Welcome to Year 4!
Children in Y4 will take the Multiplication Times Table Check across a 2 week period in June.
The Multiplication Times Table Check (MTC) is a statutory test for all Y4 children in England. The purpose of the Multiplication Times Table Check is to determine whether children can fluently recall their times tables up to 12.
Children are tested on their ability to answer 25 multiplication questions online. They have six seconds to answer each question.
