Summary

After-school care (BSO) Zo on Van Nijenrodestraat in 's-Gravenhage (35 places, ages 4-12) was inspected unannounced on 28 February 2025. The annual supervision assessed pedagogical climate, staff/groups, and accommodation. All statutory standards were met: the pedagogical policy is correctly implemented, all staff are registered in the Childcare Personnel Register (PRK) with a valid Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG), the child-staff ratio is in order at all times, children are placed in fixed base groups with a fixed mentor, and the indoor and outdoor spaces meet surface area and safety requirements. No violations or areas for improvement were identified.

No recovery action was needed. No enforcement action is recommended.
