BSO Voetbal Academy

Strengths

• Pedagogical policy has been resolved: care now takes place at the location itself with a warm meal
• Base group structure has been resolved: children start and finish at the same location
• Group room has been more appropriately furnished with mobile tables, board games and construction materials
• Risk of missing children is described location-specific in the safety policy

Shortcomings

• Presentation of books could be more organized and inviting
• Amount of construction and play materials in bins is limited

Violations

• The safety and health policy is not being followed in warm weather: children are not being applied with sunscreen before going outside, drinking breaks are only scheduled upon request and are too short, play activities are insufficiently adapted to the heat, signs of overheating are being ignored, and children are being required to continue sports despite complaints

Summary

GGD Flevoland conducted an unannounced follow-up inspection on 27 August 2026 at BSO Voetbal Academy in Almere, an after-school care (BSO) for children aged 4 to 12 operated by Saffana's Kinderopvang B.V. The inspection followed an annual inspection on 4 November 2025 during which multiple violations were identified and the municipality imposed an order subject to a penalty. The operator has resolved three of the four shortcomings: the pedagogical policy, the base group structure, and the group room layout. However, a violation regarding the safety and health policy has been insufficiently resolved. In warm weather, protocols for sun protection, drinking breaks, activity adjustment, and recognizing signs of overheating are not being followed. Children are required to continue football despite complaints about the heat.
