Hello,
My entire foundation slab is above ground level. On top of that, there will be Poroton blocks and a floor construction 20 cm (8 inches) thick.
Would I gain a significant advantage if I insulate the 24 cm (9.5 inches) perimeter of the foundation slab?

You can’t really judge that based on the picture. I assume you are building with solid construction without external thermal insulation composite systems (ETICS). However, the picture shows a wall assembly with ETICS. Omitting insulation under the slab already has the potential to cause problems.
