Children’s summer camps at the daytime school are becoming more popular every year. Accordingly, information about the maximum number of children that can be in a group and how many teachers should be in each group will be relevant for both teachers and parents. We consider the topic of the summer camp from a legal point of view.

Legally…

To begin with, let’s determine what type of institutions school camps belong to. Let’s turn to SanPiN 2.4.4.2599-10 “Hygienic requirements for the arrangement, maintenance and organization of the working hours in recreational institutions with daytime stay of children during the holidays” (hereinafter – SanPiN). According to paragraph 1.3, “health institutions with daytime stay of children (hereinafter referred to as health institutions) are organized for students of educational institutions during the summer, autumn, winter and spring holidays. Health-improving institutions are staffed from among the students of one or more general education, sports, art schools and other institutions for children and adolescents, are divided into groups of no more than 25 people for students in grades 1-4 and no more than 30 people for other students.

To establish the occupancy rates for groups, you should open another document – Decree of the Secretariat of the All-Union Central Council of Trade Unions dated May 11, 1990 N 7-22 “On Model States of Administrative, Economic, Pedagogical, Medical, Support Personnel of Children’s Health Camps.” At the beginning of the document, we see a resolution that “The occupancy standards for a detachment (group) of children’s health camps with round-the-clock stay” should be “spread to all types of health camps and labor and recreation camps.” Thus, we understand that there are specific occupancy rates for the school summer camp.

Turning to the second paragraph of the Decree, we find that “The states of children’s health camps are approved by the trade union committees in charge of the camps. In cases where the states cannot be applied in terms of the volume and conditions of work, allow trade union committees to establish additional positions for workers in children’s health camps in addition to those provided for by these Model States.

In the first paragraph of the document of the section “Teaching staff” we see: “The number of educators and leaders (pioneer leaders) is set at the rate of two positions of an educator and one position of a leader (pioneer leader) for each group of schoolchildren aged 10 to 14 years (no more than 30 people) and each group of schoolchildren aged 6 to 9years – 25 people. For every two or three detachments (groups), one position of a substitute teacher (leader or pioneer leader) is established. The first paragraph of the second paragraph of the annex to the Resolution states that “the number of club leaders in the camp is set at the rate of 1 unit per 4 groups with an average occupancy of up to 20 people each, except for dance, choir and rhythm circles, where the average occupancy is at least 30 people. For these employees, a monthly summarized accounting of working time is established at the rate of 3 hours of circle work per day. Pioneer instructors who have the appropriate training to carry out this work can be sent to the camp as leaders of circles on free vouchers.

“3. The number of positions of accompanists in the camp is established taking into account the number of choral, dance and other circles that require musical accompaniment; the time spent by the accompanist on accompanying morning exercises, preparing and holding mass cultural and sporting events. For these employees, a monthly summarized accounting of working time is established at the rate of 4 hours of work per day.

4. If there is a swimming pool, swimming pool (beach) on a reservoir in the camp, the position of an instructor-methodologist in physical culture and sports is established at the rate of 1 unit for every 4 detachments (groups).

5. For the organization of tourist work with children and adolescents, the position of an instructor-methodologist in tourism is established in the camp.

6. The position of the head of the club is established if there is a club in the camp with more than 380 children per shift.

7. The position of the head of the branch of the mass or children’s trade union library is established in the camp.

If there is a reading room and a book fund of at least 10 books per child in a camp with more than 530 children, an additional 0.5 positions of a librarian are established per shift.

From all of the above, it follows that:

in the summer camp, the group is formed as follows:

for students in grades 1-4, the maximum number of people in a group should be no more than 25 people;
for students of other classes, the maximum number of people in a group should be no more than 30 people;

the composition of educators and counselors in the summer camp is distributed according to the following principle:

there are two teachers and one counselor per group of students aged six to nine,
for a group of students aged ten to fourteen, there are also two places for an educator and one for a pioneer leader,
Two or three groups of children rely on one substitute teacher.

What if…

… the number of teaching staff relying on each children’s group does not meet the established standards? – You should write an appeal demanding to eliminate the violation of the law.

Sample Application

From Semenov A.V.

Statement

Squad No. 3 consists of students aged 6 to 8 years in the amount of 24 people. Clause 2 of the Decree of the Secretariat of the All-Union Central Council of Trade Unions dated May 11, 1990 N 7-22 “On Model States of the Administrative, Pedagogical, Medical, Maintenance Personnel of Children’s Health Camps” establishes that the number of educators and counselors is set at the rate of 2 positions of an educator and 1 position of a counselor for each group of schoolchildren aged 10 to 14 (no more than 30 people) and each group of schoolchildren aged 6 to 9years – 25 people. For every two or three groups, 1 position of a substitute teacher (leader or pioneer leader) is established.

Currently, there is 1 educator in Detachment No. 3, which is a violation of the current legislation. Please eliminate this fact, because. children’s safety is at risk.
