At the end of last year, Ofsted scrapped its previous framework where schools would receive a single word rating following an inspection.
Previously schools would be rated outstanding, good, requires improvement or inadequate, but inspectors are now using a five-point, color-coded report card system, where multiple areas are assessed including inclusion, attendance, curriculum, behaviour, leadership and wellbeing.
The new system will grade each area exceptional, strong standard, expected standard, needs attention or urgent improvement.
So far this year, 12 schools have been inspected in Portsmouth and the surrounding areas.
Take a look at how these schools have fared using the new five-point grading framework:
