Strengths

• Pedagogical policy partially improved: procedures for after-school care (BSO), meals, settling-in, mentorship, outings, and the three-hour rule are now described in concrete terms
• Staff qualification requirements are now demonstrated, including the IKK language requirement
• Interns are deployed above the standard staff ratio according to schedules
• Parents are now consulted on intended policy changes via letters
• 2025 dispute resolution declaration has been submitted

Violations

• Pedagogical policy: missing concrete description of the operator's considerations regarding staff-to-child ratios for after-school care (BSO), after-school care, and vacation days
• Childcare persons register: intern started on 08-09-2025, only linked on 04-11-2025 without evidence that they started only after linkage
• Insufficient qualified staff deployed: schedules show only planned hours, not actual hours; staff-to-child ratio cannot be verified
• Pedagogical policy staff member: insufficient evidence that coaching took place in 2025; hour calculation was incorrect
• Safety and health policy: operator fails to exercise sufficient care for implementation; backup staff not visible on schedules on a daily basis
• First aid: not all staff members hold a valid certificate; two certificates expire on 01-04-2026; lone staff members without first aid certification on schedule
• Reporting code: insufficient evidence that knowledge and use are being promoted; no mention in meeting minutes
• Reporting, consultation, and notification obligation: no documents or verifiable information on instruction or training of staff members
• Parent information: website difficult to access, pedagogical policy link does not work, safety policy is an outdated version from 2022
• Parent committee: insufficiently demonstrable effort to recruit a parent committee; no evidence of active recruitment

Summary

The Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection report dated 12 May 2026 for after-school care (BSO) 't Schommeltje in Hoogezand reveals serious and persistent shortcomings. The location, with a maximum capacity of 27 children aged 4–13, fails to meet multiple statutory quality requirements despite repeated inspections in 2023, 2024, and 2025. The pedagogical policy has been partially improved, but the staff-to-child ratio is still missing. Violations have been identified regarding staff and groups (interns starting without persons register linkage, insufficient qualified staff), safety and health (expired first aid certificates, backup staff arrangement not visible on schedules), and parental rights (unreachable website, outdated policy documents). The operator has provided insufficient evidence that staff members are familiar with the reporting code and the reporting, consultation, and notification obligation. The advice to the municipality is: enforce.
