What is the multiplication tables check?
The multiplication tables check is a statutory online assessment for every Year 4 child in England. Children answer 25 multiplication questions on a screen, drawn from the 2 to 12 times tables.
When is the MTC in 2026?
The check takes place during a three-week window in June 2026. Each child answers 25 questions with six seconds to type each answer.
How can I help my Year 4 child prepare?
Short, regular drills are the fastest route to recall. Five minutes a day with mixed times tables, with one or two tables singled out for focus, works well. Our Year 4 times tables packs match the format of the check.
