Claiming Free Third Class Maths Credits
Whether your school has never used DOTS before or you are an online testing veteran, this free credit offer is for all.
Schools can place orders for the free tests directly on our DOTS platform by adding the required Level 3 Maths test credits to their cart. This will be processed as a ‘free order’, and once the order has been placed, the credits will be automatically applied to your school’s account.
Please note that any orders for other types of online test credits must be placed separately. This ensures that your free order is processed correctly and that credits are allocated without delay.
If you are unsure whether your school is ready for online testing, please visit our Preparing to Use DOTS page for guidance and support.
