A preventive system – as Don Bosco stated (1815-1888) – “is based entirely on reason, religion and kindness (love of education)”. These three basic principles not only mutually intertwine, but also condition one another. The active nature of the love of education in the preventive system of Don Bosco and its universality is revealed in the care for the individual as well as in respect, understanding and responsibility. It also means a professional orientation of the teacher that is focused on the child and its developmental needs and in discovering in each student a rational, free and responsible person which is sensitive to goodness, truth and beauty and which is capable of self-reflection, self-fulfilment, creativity and transcendence.
