This paper draws on David Harvey's theories of absolute and relational space in order to critique geographically bound school choices of the gentrified middle-class in the City of Melbourne, Australia. The paper relies on interviews with inner-city school choosers as generated by a longitudinal ethnographic school choice study. I argue that the participants construct their class-identity in relation to their geographical (or residential) positioning and this influences their schooling choices. In the light of this argument, I theorise "geo-identity" in thinking about how geographies inform and instruct identity and choice. This paper contributes by offering a focused analysis of Harvey's spatial theories and class-identity in processes of choice.
