  In 2016 the Swedish fritidshem got its own curriculum where mathematics is formally

  introduced. The space where students can experience informal forms of mathematics

  in activities derived out of their own interest risks being slowly transformed into a

  schoolified form of mathematics, steered by teachers and striving for learning

  effectiveness. A policy enactment perspective was used to investigate the material,

  interpretive and discursive dimensions of the enactment process. Based on document

  analysis, observations and interviews in two cases, tensions between two different and

  competing discourses were identified: one driven by student’s interests and one driven

  by teacher’s mathematical agenda. The meaning of fritidshem math will configure in

  the tensions about what counts as desirable forms of mathematical activity in practice.
