The Science Laboratory (SL) is a school space that can enhance student learning. However, the lack of teacher training, the precarious structure of the LC and the lack of pedagogical support are factors that reduce the potential of this space. Understanding the need for indications in official documents about the LC, this study aimed to analyze how the National Common Curricular Base [BNCC] can contemplate the LC for the teaching of Natural Sciences during the High School stage. A documentary survey of the BNCC revealed the presence of competences and skills that encourage investigative activities. However, the document does not mention the LC as the most appropriate space in the school for such activities. As a result, it emerged that the BNCC does not provide any support for teachers to ask their school systems to implement and use the LC.
