This article provides a review of the state of the art on bioethics in the context of public school education. Through a documentary analysis, trends in this field are examined based on various teaching-learning processes. Among the results, the importance of developing critical thinking through the active participation of students is emphasized, aiming to foster reasoning and moral decision-making while incorporating real-life situations from their context. Certain bioethical topics that students do not handle confidently need to be strengthened. The suggestion is to expand the analysis to determine whether socio-economic conditions in the context of public school education lead students to neglect bioethical principles. Therefore, discussing resilience and will in this context implies the ability to sustain a discourse and a framework of action, as bioethics should be lived and experienced in terms of its principles and values. In this sense, it becomes a capacity to be a leader and set an example for a community so thatthe entire theory is credible and can be practiced. Finally, it is hoped that bioethics can gain recognition in the context of public school education, especially in communities that also need guidance on bioethical principles.
