This study aimed to determine the process of occurrence of symbolic violence on students and the impact of symbolic violence on students at SMAN Flobamorata Kupang (SKO). This study employed a qualitative method. The subjects in this study were teachers and students of SMAN Flobamorata Kupang. Data collection used observation, interviews, and documentation. The data analysis used data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions. The results of the study show that there is symbolic violence in SKO through language because the teachers have symbolic dominance over students. If there are students who are noisy in class, lazy to do assignments, and focus more on sports activities, the teachers easily say lazy and stupid. Meanwhile, there is also symbolic violence between students at SKO because of seniority. Students who have more experience have symbolic dominance because they first enter SKO, so they always want to be respected. In addition, the causes of symbolic violence in SKO are due to differences in the origins of students from cities and countryside. Students from the city of Kupang feel that they have symbolic dominance because they think they know more about life in the city and feel that they are more accomplished in academics and sports than students from the village.
