HUNDREDS of Southampton children will be starting secondary school this September. 

Schools are routinely inspected by education watchdog, Ofsted, to monitor anything from the quality of teaching to pupils' behaviour.

They are then given one of four ratings: 'outstanding', 'good', 'requires improvement' or 'inadequate'.

Below is a list of all of the Southampton secondary schools that have been rated by Ofsted.
