History

In the early 1970s, Section 14 was developing rapidly as a housing estate. Thus, as the population increased, the number of children attending secondary was also increasing. At the time, secondary school girls had to attend Sekolah Menengah (P) Taman Petaling which was located quite a distance away from Section 14. Due to the need that arose, the government decided to open up a secondary school for the girls in Section 14.

At the beginning, the school was known as Sekolah Menengah Jenis Kebangsaan (Inggeris) Section 14. It was officially opened on 9 August 1971. 416 students were transferred to this school from Sekolah Menengah (P) Taman Petaling. Not only that, 13 teachers from the same school were also brought in. Another teacher was transferred from Sekolah Menengah Jalan Cheras, Kuala Lumpur.

Form 3 and Form 5 students were not transferred at the time because it was already the third term of the academic year for L.C.E and H.S.C of 1971.

The first principal, Cik Jeanette Lim Leong Huan, played the main role in the identity of the school by creating the school badge with the enchanted phrase "Menuju ke Medan Jaya" and later was transformed to "Berusaha ke Medan Jaya". She had also decided to choose violet and yellow as the colours of the school.

Facilities

The school has squash courts and tennis courts, a basketball court and a handball court a field and school hall. There is a smaller hall available for cheer and aerobics practices. The school has an orchestra room, a choir room and also an 'Anklung' room for musically inclined co-curriculum activities.

Houses

There are four sports houses in the school. The sports houses compete against each other on sports day. The School Sports Day has been held since 1973. The houses were named after gemstones, which are: Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald and Topaz.

School Badge

The school badge was designed by Datin Sharon Martha Augustin, an art teacher at the school in 1971.

Motto is 'Berusaha Ke Medan Jaya' (Efforts Towards Success). Colour yellow and violet are used. Branches symbolise harmony and peace. Torch and book symbolise students who are willing to advance towards success in academic and co-curriculum at all times. Hoops symbolise strength and unity.
