ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study focuses on the subjective formation of high school students from the Kramat community near Macassar, Cape Town. The Kramat is a small area on the outskirts of Macassar in the Helderberg. The Kramat (which was historically known as the Zandvliet farm) is especially known amongst the Muslim community of South Africa for the shrine erected in Shaykh Yusuf’s honour. The students in this study attended schools away from home as there are no schools in an area called the Kramat, the community in which they live. This means that when children are of school-going age, they are enrolled at schools outside of the community, in most cases, schools in the nearby Macassar and Firgrove suburbs or in the nearest town, Somerset West, to receive their primary and high schooling. Their social and educational experiences thus differ depending on the school they attend. The purpose of this study is to understand both the ways in which their upbringing and socialisation in the small Muslim community of Kramat impacted on their schooling experiences as well as the way in which their educational and social experiences in schools outside of the community impacted on their emerging social identities or subjectivities within their traditional faith-based community. This study is therefore underpinned by Lefebvre’s theory of space to understand how the students interacted in and with the space of the home and the school to form their subjectivities. This study is situated in the qualitative interpretive paradigm. Through the semi-structured interview method, the study thus shows the subjective formation of high school students from the Kramat through their interactions with their high schools. The data further shows the experiences of the students in the community and in their high schools and how they used the values that they had been taught growing up in the community to navigate the schooling space to form their subjectivities.
