The document introduces a new educational model for pre-school: the Experiential Education (EXE). This educational model in the area of elementary education developed in Flanders and in the Netherlands in 1991. The basic insight within the EXE-theory is that the most economic and conclusive way to assess the quality of any educational setting (from the pre-school level to adult education) is to focus on two dimensions: the degree of ‘emotional well-being’ and the level of ‘involvement’ of pupils in the process of learning. The paper provides useful guidelines for practice.
