Childcare for 8&11 yr old using childcare vouchers

Hi
Could anyone give me some advice. I have gone bacon to work & have signed up for childcare vouchers to pay for childcare in the school holidays. I've started looking into it, on the childcare voucher redemption form you have to put in ofsted number. All the activities typically sport related that offer days/clubs, that my children are interested in don't seem to be ofsted registered, why? My two don't want to go to child minders anymore & my eldest is too old for kids clubs. It doesn't seem fair, any suggestions?
Regards

Sports based activity groups can be exempt from registration.
Try multi Activity things instead like www.supercamps.co.uk which are able to accept Childcare Vouchers.

You need to ask the provider of the activities if they accept vouchers, not all childminders etc do.

If they are on school premises, under the direction of the school governing body and outside of school hours, they may qualify anyway.

Same for some LA run activities.

If not you could speak to them about getting voluntary Ofsted registration
