When to test with NGMT
NGMT can be administered up to three times a year: once in each term. Termly testing will
allow the most effective monitoring of children’s attainment and progress in mathematics.
· NGMT Form A is designed for administration during the first term of the academic year.
· NGMT Form B is designed for administration during the middle of the academic year.
· NGMT Form C is designed for administration during the final term of the academic year.
Another possible way of using NGMT would be to screen all students in the first term of the year. This screening can identify weaker mathematicians for whom an intervention may be put in place. The intervention group can be screened again in the second term, and all students again in the third term, for example.
