Summary

The annual Municipal Health Service (GGD) inspection of after-school care (BSO) Sportify Kids location De Duikers in Purmerend shows a predominantly positive picture. The childcare meets requirements for pedagogical climate, staff and groups, and partially meets parental rights requirements. Two violations were identified: a deficiency in the safety policy that has been resolved through a recovery offer, and the absence of a parent committee despite sufficient efforts. The GGD advises against enforcement.
