Abstract

Environmental education plays an irreplaceable role in pre-school education. The role of the kindergarten systematically influences and regulates the value orientation of child towards an environmentally responsible way of life and towards the sustainable development of society. A kindergarten can act in the educational process, but also the overall "spirit" of the school. The article presents the results of an evaluation and implementation of sustainable development philosophy in pre-schools. Two pre-schools in Banská Bystrica and Banská Štiavnica were compared and evaluated in terms of set of sustainable development indicators for the 2014/2015 academic year. Based on this methodology, pre-schools can create and monitor their practical application of the sustainable development philosophy and undertake internal audits at the sustainable development level.
