Abstract

Various violations are often found in the world of schools, especially boarding schools. Boarding schools have regulations that bind students 24 hours a day. There is a need for a study to determine the motivation of students when committing violations in boarding schools. This case study examines the preference of disciplinary system violation in one of the boarding schools located in Bogor regency. This research was conducted by semi-structured interviews of two students, who are got through a purposeful sampling strategy and did an internal document analysis from the school's coaching department. With coding and categorization of respondents' answers, it was found that violations such as smoking, escaping, being late for school, absenteeism, and illegal goods were still common despite the strict rules. The factor that plays a role comes from student self-control manifested in poor motivation and perception of these rules. In addition, it also needs to pay attention to implementing student discipline, especially in the involvement of all elements of the school, including students, in formulating rules. It is also essential to pay attention to the implementation of the rule consistently.The existence of a gap between expectations and the reality of its implementation needs further evaluation.
