Home Reading
It is important for children in Year 4 to read at home every night and bring their reading book in every day.
Throughout Year 4 we hope that children continue to develop their confidence, understanding and fluency in reading. Children will read daily, either independently or with an adult, so we ask that reading folders/ books are in school every day.
Multiplication Test Check (Times Tables Test)
In the UK, the Multiplication Tables Check (MTC) is a statutory assessment for Year 4 pupils in England to ensure they can fluently recall their times tables up to 12×12.
- Format: An on-screen, digital check consisting of 25 questions.
- Timing: Pupils have 6 seconds to answer each question, with a 3-second pause between them.
- Scope: It covers the 2 to 12 times tables, with a focus on the 6, 7, 8, 9, and 12 tables.
- 2026 Dates: The official check window is from Monday 1 June to Friday 12 June 2026.
- Purpose: To help schools identify pupils who may need additional support to master multiplication.
- Practice Sites: Several platforms offer mirrors of the official check, such as Mathsframe and TimesTables.co.uk.
