In my thesis I have presented the usability of the Don Bosco educational system applied in the pre-school institution Danijelov Levček. In the theoretical part I described the repressive and the preventive approaches to pre-school education. As an example of a repressive educational system I have shown the catholic concept of pre-school education which is rigid and does not allow any doubt in its application. The founder of the preventive system is Don Bosco with his new approach to educating children. His preventive approach is now considered as an educational system in pre-school education. I started the empirical part of my thesis with interviewing two employees of the pre-school institution Danielov Levček about educational system. To be more exact, I interviewed the headmistress and a teacher of the institution. The topic of the interview were the elements of the preventive system and their use in their institution nowadays. Their answers show that although the institution's work is based on the curriculum guidance, their practical work indicates the existence of Don Bosco's preventive system. The system can be observed in the use of the assistance concept, informal gatherings, family atmosphere and trust, and teacher’s approach towards kids as such. I can conclude that the use of those elements improves the quality of child – teacher relationship and the trust between them.
