What is the Year 4 multiplication tables check?
The multiplication tables check is an online test for pupils in Year 4. Pupils are asked to answer 25 questions on times tables from two to 12. They are given six seconds per question, with three seconds rest between each question, so the test should last less than five minutes. It is very similar to the set-up of Times Tables Rock stars.
Questions about the six, seven, eight, nine, and 12 times tables are likely to come up most often, as these are the hardest for most children to learn. It’s a good idea to focus on these tricky times tables with your child.
First and foremost, the check is about finding out which children are struggling with their times tables so that they can get extra support. It is not a judgement on what your child can do, but a way for the school to know how their teaching is going and to adjust their focus if needed.
When is the check going to happen?
The next trial of the times tables check, open to all schools that want to take part, will take place between 5th–23rd June 2023. Our school participated in the trial and if your child is in Year 4, then they took the test.
By June 2020, every school will be required to take part in the check by law.

Nettlesworth Primary school had lots of fun celebrating and raising awareness for Brain Tumours when taking part in Wear A Hat Day. We took part in a HATTASTIC quiz and crowned the winning team with a super-amazing hat trophy. It was great to see so many hats of all different shapes and sizes – Well done everyone 🙂
We would like to say a huge thank you to all of our parents and carers for helping to raise £75.00

This week in our Safeguarding Assembly we took part in Water safety education. At Nettlesworth, we recognise that this is a vital life skill, but it doesn’t have to be boring. So, we have worked alongside the Durham School’s Sports Partnership and delivered the activity packs from Rookie Lifeguards Training to get across the importance of Water Safety to the children.
For more information about this see the packs below:

Today we have had lots of fun with Marie-Claire learning about the different ways that we can complete our daily Active 60.
We began the day with an assembly, learning about the importance movement has on our mental health and well being
UNCRC Article 31 – Right to take part in a wide range of activities.
Class 1 had lots of fun doing some active yoga. We learnt lots of yoga positions and could do these whilst moving around the hall. We explored different yoga poses on our spots and added animal actions to remember them. Marie-Claire was amazed at our balance and control 🙂
We worked on our active yoga. We demonstrated our fundamental movement skills as well as our flexible moves.

Class 3 had lots of fun doing some active yoga. We learnt lots of yoga positions and could do these whilst moving around the hall. We learnt how to do yoga poses both on our own and with a partner. Marie-Claire was so impressed with our flexibility and balance.
This afternoon, Class 4 had the chance to take part in a Step Fit aerobics class as part our own Health & Wellbeing Day with Marie-Claire. We loved coming up with our own routines after learning the moves from Marie-Claire and are aiming to continue to do at least 60 minutes of being active every day – even when not in school! Well done everyone.
UNCRC Article 31 – every child has the right to take part in a wide range of activities.
A fabulous session with Marie Claire saw Class 5 participating in Step Fit for an hour. The whole class demonstrated Rights Respecting Gold throughout with their determination and willingness to complete each exercise.
Well done everyone.
