Ofsted rates Barracudas summer camps highly!

Our Summer camps were visited by Ofsted inspectors this year and we’re delighted with the ratings we’ve been awarded!

We’re chuffed with the results and the affirmation that we continue to drive standards and provide an excellent solution for parents and children during the school holidays.

We always aim to provide an unrivalled experience at all of our multi-activity camps. Now in our 27th year and with 46 camps in the UK, Barracudas continues to meet the high standards our customers have come to expect.

They said the nicest things!

Here are just some of the comments made by Ofsted about our camps this summer

Children have outstanding opportunities to challenge their physical skills in incredibly interesting ways. They negotiate exceptional skills and explore an extensive range of ways to move with excellent levels of maturity and confidence. Barracudas Sevenoaks camp

The highly qualified staff provide a superb range of activities. These keep children highly engaged and interested as they acquire new skills and knowledge. Barracudas Twickenham St Catherine’s camp

Partnerships with parents are superb. Parents are highly complimentary about the club. They particularly value how their children are treated as individuals and how well the staff meet any specific needs their children have. Barracudas Welwyn camp

Staff have excellent skills and knowledge of specific sports and early years development. Children's independence is well promoted because they are encouraged to make choices and do things for themselves. Barracudas Hertford camp
