Summary

GGD Noord- en Oost-Gelderland conducted an announced incidental inspection on 18 August 2026 at after-school care (BSO) De Wijssel in Gendringen, part of childcare organisation Kinderopvang Humankind. The inspection was carried out in the context of a change request to expand the number of childcare places from 22 to 36. The additional 14 places concern pre-school care for children from 7 years old in the entrance hall of the gymnasium next to the school. All assessed domains – changes, pedagogical policy, staff and groups, safety and health, and accommodation – comply with legal requirements. Staff hold approved Certificates of Good Conduct (VOG) and are correctly registered in the childcare personnel register. The indoor space of 50.36 m² amply meets the 49 m² requirement for 14 children, and outdoor space is sufficient. No points for improvement or violations were identified.
