My view is that safety has to be an overriding factor - other peoples safety. Are school kids in a position to adequately judge this? Big answer is no - just look at the number of under 21's who kill themselves (and others) on the roads doing stupid things (ie not accidents)

I'm not sure about the Spanish Ed system, but here in NSW we have something similar to this in the syllabus';-

H16. justifies positive values about and attitude towards both the living and non-living components of the environment, ethical behaviour and a desire for critical evaluation of the consequences of the applications of science.

So it forms part of the investigation design process.
