New tests will examine multiplication skills in every 11 year old as part of the Government's "war on innumeracy and illiteracy", the Department for Education said.
Pupils will expected to know all tables up to 12x12, with the skill measured using an "on-screen check" examination to be piloted by 3,000 students in 80 schools this summer before being rolled out countrywide in 2017.
