MALT Stage 1 Manual

A tried and tested approach to mathematics assessment for ages 5-14. Nationally standardised on over 12,500 pupils, MaLT can be used at any time during the school year – for screening, monitoring and tracking progress, as well as for individual diagnostic profiling.

These nationally standardised tests – for groups or individuals – also yield diagnostic information which will directly support individual and whole-class teaching.

Purpose-written to highlight particular errors and misunderstandings which are diagnostic of key learning needs – counting errors, misconceptions with decimals, etc.
