Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) annual inspection of 14 April 2026 of after-school care (BSO) Hoera Horn, Mussenberg shows that the location complies with all assessed quality requirements under the Childcare Act following a recovery offer. The after-school care (BSO) provides after-school care for children aged 4 to 6 in the school building of primary school De Mussenberg. The pedagogical practice is strong: permanent staff and core groups are in place, children are approached with sensitivity and responsiveness, and attention is paid to social skills through the 'restoration wall'. However, two violations were identified regarding the deployment of pedagogical policy staff: an incorrect calculation of the number of childcare centers (66 instead of 65) and missing written distribution of coaching hours per location. Both shortcomings were resolved through a recovery offer. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises no enforcement action.
