Sekolah Menengah Sains Tengku Muhammad Faris Petra (SMSTMFP) is a government-funded secondary boarding school in Pengkalan Chepa, Kota Bharu in the state of Kelantan, Malaysia. The school is located about 9 km northeast of the state capital Kota Bharu and about 1.5 km southeast of the Sultan Ismail Petra Airport.

History

It was one of the ten new residential science schools built by the Malaysian Government in the wake of the 1971 Malaysian New Economic Policy to give education with a science bias to selected pupils, predominantly Malays. Its original name was Sekolah Menengah Sains Kelantan, which means Kelantan Secondary Science School.

It officially opened in 1973 with six classes and eleven teachers, but the students had to reside in the nearby Sekolah Menengah Ismail Petra (SMIP) until the present campus was ready at the start of 1974.[4]

In 1986 the name was changed to Tengku Muhammad Faris Petra Science Secondary School, named after the crown prince of Kelantan, His Royal Highness Tengku Muhammad Faris Petra.[4]

Notable alumni

The former students' association (also known as SEMESTA) showed their appreciation to the school by contributing a mosque in 2004. All the costs of RM 600,000 were borne by the alumni and by collections by the school's Parent-Teacher Association.[citation needed]
