Figueroa's Framework Analysis

Introduction:
In the final term of senior physical education, the institutional level of Figueroa's framework has been analyzed with the acquired knowledge applied to assess the appropriateness of St Mary’s access and equity with focusing particularly on netball. Some chose to play a sport for the health benefits, others because their parents played before them and yet some just play because they feel it is important to be apart of something so great.
