As of October 2026, assessments in Mathletics have one home: the Assess area of the program. It's your dedicated hub for finding, assigning, marking and reviewing assessments.
In this article, we’ll walk you through the assessment process, from finding the right assessment to reassigning it.
How do I find, preview and assign an assessment?
-
Log into your Mathletics Teacher Console.
-
Navigate to the ‘Assess’ page via the left-hand menu or select the Assess tile on your dashboard.

-
Find an assessment
Use the filters to narrow your options by country, curriculum and year, or search by assessment title.
Your class year is selected by default. If you teach a composite class, the lowest year is selected automatically, but you can adjust this as needed.
-
Understand assessment names
Assessment names follow this format: Assessment type → year → Identifier. This helps you identify the right assessment quickly.
Students see a version of the title without the year, helping protect their confidence when they're assigned an assessment below their current year level.
-
Preview an assessment before assigning it
Select View to open the Review panel, where you can check the assessment before assigning it.
The Review panel shows:- Each question and its available answer options
- The correct answer for each question
- The colour-coded curriculum strand relevant to each question
- The curriculum strand or outcome code associated with each question
- You can also print the assessment from the Review panel if you need a hard copy.
-
Select the questions you want to include (optional)
When scheduling an assessment, select Preview and select Questions to choose which questions students will answer.
All questions are selected by default. Deselect individual questions or use Select All to adjust your selection.
Your changes apply only to that scheduled assessment. They won't alter the original assessment, so you can tailor question selections for different classes or groups.
-
Assign the assessment
Select Assign, then choose whether to assign the assessment to your whole class, a group or individual students.
Set the assessment's start date and time, along with its end date and time.
You can also choose to:- Shuffle question order so students receive questions in a different order.
-
Enable ‘Students on Task’ to monitor student activity. This option is available when assigning to a whole class or a full group.
-
Check and confirm your assessment schedule
Before confirming, review the schedule details, including the assessment title, number of students, start and end times, and duration.
Once you've confirmed the schedule, you can go straight to Manage from the confirmation screen if you want to view or manage the assessment.
-
Reassign a completed assessment
To give students another attempt, select Re-assign on the completed assessment. You don't need to select the test type again.
Each attempt is retained, allowing you to compare student performance over time and see how their understanding develops.
