These free test paper templates give you 3 designs as Word documents on long bond (8.5 x 13 in) and A4: a test paper for Grades 1 to 3, a multiple choice test paper for Grades 4 to 12 and a 1 to 50 answer sheet, each in colour and in black and white. Every template is human-made by a teacher: I’m Patrick Elliott, a teacher and Inclusion Lead, and I designed and built each one myself in Microsoft Word, then printed them to check they line up and fill the page as they should.

In this guide, you’ll find which test paper to use, how to type your questions in, and how to add more items or pages.

What Font and Paper Should a Test Paper Use?

Divisions set their own test paper rules, but many follow the same pattern: long bond paper with narrow margins, Century Gothic 14 point for Grades 1 to 3 so young learners can read the letters easily, and Bookman Old Style 11 or 12 point for Grades 4 to 12. These templates follow that pattern, with a header for the school, the test name, grade, term and school year, then name, section, date and score lines. Check your division memo before printing. They are independent templates from Word Made Easy, not official DepEd documents, so they carry no DepEd seal: add your school’s name and logo if your division asks for them.

Which Test Paper Template Should You Use?

• Grades 1 to 3: Century Gothic 14 point, eight questions with three choices each and plenty of space, for learners to encircle the answer.
• Grades 4 to 12: Bookman Old Style, 20 multiple choice items with choices A to D in two columns, and a line for each answer.
• Answer sheet: shade-the-circle boxes for items 1 to 50, A to D, for tests printed once and used again.
• Plan the items first with the table of specifications templates.

How to Use the Test Paper Template

1. Choose your paper size above, download the ZIP and open the test paper for your grade level.
2. Click NAME OF SCHOOL and type your school’s name, then type the test name, grade level, term and school year.
3. Click each question and type it, then click each choice and type the answer options.
4. For more items, click inside the last item, go to Layout > Insert Below, and copy an item into the new row.
5. For a Test II, type the directions below the last item and add your questions, or copy the page.

Print one copy first and check every question fits and the numbering follows on. Print on long bond at 100%, or set long bond as the paper size first: see how to set long bond paper size in Word.

Black and White Versions

Every template on this page also comes in a black and white version with the same layout: grey headings and an outlined title, so it prints clearly on any printer and saves ink. In the download box, choose Long bond or A4 for the colour files, Black and white for the black and white files on both papers, or Everything for all of them.

---

How to Print at the Right Size

1. Open the template in Word and press Ctrl + P (Cmd + P on a Mac).
2. Choose the paper size in the file name: long bond (8.5 x 13 in) or A4.
3. Set scaling to 100% or Actual size, not Fit to page.
4. Print one sheet and measure a row with a ruler before you print a class set.

Every sheet keeps a 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) margin on all sides, so nothing is cut off on home inkjets, school laser printers or older printers with a wide edge.
