Raja Isteri Girls' High School (Malay: Sekolah Tinggi Perempuan Raja Isteri, abbrev: STPRI)[2] is a girls government secondary school located in Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei.
Name
editThe late Pengiran Anak Damit (1924–1979), the Queen consort of Brunei and the late wife of Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien III,[3] who had been known as Paduka Seri Baginda Raja Isteri,[4] is honoured by the school's name.[5] She brought attention to problems that the nation's citizens and the community faced during her time as Queen consort. Her public persona was well seen by the masses, particularly the female demographic, given that she accompanied her spouse on multiple state trips in her capacity as a public servant.[4]
History
editFounded in 1930 with 24 students, the educational institution was the first girls school. Construction of a new school began in 1955, and was completed in 1957.[6] Following this, the school changed its name to Sekolah Tinggi Perempuan (Girls High School) in January 1957, it had one building block, presently known as Block A, with five classrooms and 99 pupils. The school was officially opened on 1 January 1958, and its name was changed to Sekolah Tinggi Perempuan Raja Isteri (Raja Isteri Girls High School).[5] The Kajang Girls' Hostel was transformed into classrooms at STPRI in that same year.[7]
The Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien College, located in Brunei Town; the Anthony Abell College located in Seria, with preparatory annexes at Kuala Belait and Tutong; and the STPRI, located in Brunei Town, were the three Government English-medium schools as of 1967.[2] STPRI's current development continues, as in 1970, work on a new structure containing a dining hall, an auditorium, and a library was initiated. When fourth form was created in 1978, STPRI students were the first to take the GCE 'O' Level examination prior to being admitted as Form students.[5]
In 2002, the sixth form was introduced. With 132 teachers on staff as of 7 March 2005, SPTRI employs teachers from Malaysia, the Philippines, India, New Zealand, Canada, and England in addition to 106 local teachers.[5] During the visit of Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah that same year, he paid a detailed inspection of the work being done at STPRI. One of the STPRI students was exhibiting symptoms of hysteria, which the Sultan saw firsthand.[8]
On 8 July 2007, STPRI had a reunion and celebration for their 50th Golden Jubilee at the Plenary Hall of the International Convention Center. Raja Isteri Pengiran Anak Hajah Saleha and Pengiran Isteri Azrinaz Mazhar agreed to visit the exhibition and greet the graduates as the festivities came to a close.[9]
On 25 June 2024, the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Guidance for Schools Toolkit Workshop was inaugurated at STPRI by the Ministry of Education (MoE).[10]
