About the Mental Arithmetic Teacher's Guide (Ages 7-11)
The Mental Arithmetic Teacher's Guide (Ages 7-11) from Schofield and Sims gives you everything you need to choose the right level for each pupil, assess their starting point, and support their progress through Key Stage 2 maths and beyond. Whether you're preparing Year 3 to Year 6 children for national tests, 11+ exams, or simply strengthening their mental arithmetic skills, this guide delivers diagnostic tools, photocopiable resources, and clear advice to make your planning faster and more confident.

Inside you'll find two Entry Tests to match each child to the most suitable pupil book, plus one-page Diagnostic Checks for every book in the series. More than 20 photocopiable classroom resources include a fractions chart, number lines, counting squares, and multiplication grids—ready to print and use whenever a pupil needs extra support. The guide also explains how to administer entry tests, mark group sessions, and monitor progress across the year, so you can spot gaps early and reward achievement with confidence. Please note this is the teacher's guide only; pupil workbooks are sold separately, and answers are available in the answer booklet (also sold separately).

By the time you've worked through this guide, you'll have a clear picture of each child's strengths and next steps in fractions, times tables, counting, and mental arithmetic. Pupils gain structured, regular practice that builds fluency and exam readiness, while you save time on assessment and resource preparation. The guide is designed to complement the full Mental Arithmetic series for home or school use, helping children consolidate essential maths facts and develop the confidence they need for Key Stage 2 tests and beyond.
This teacher's guide suits primary schools, tutors, and home educators supporting children aged 7 to 11. It works alongside the Mental Arithmetic pupil books to provide a complete system for diagnosing, teaching, and tracking progress in core maths skills throughout Key Stage 2.
