History

The concept of ''Sekolah Berasrama Penuh Integrasi'' or Integrated Fully Residential School was proposed in 2002 by Tan Sri Musa Mohamad, the then Minister of Education. This type of school provides three academic streams for its students; Islamic science, science and technical. At that time, students who wanted to pursue their studies in the Islam science stream needed to attend religious schools. ''Sekolah Berasrama Penuh Integrasi Gombak'' started its operation in December 2002. The first group of students registered on 17 February 2003. During that time, there were only 14 teaching staff that catered for 162 students in form 4 and form 1.
