[3] Establishment Sekolah Sultan Alam Shah was introduced as a result of the Razak Report drafted in 1956, in line with the efforts of reforming the education system in the Federation of Malaya.

Later, Prime Minister, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad proposed to move the school to Malaysia's new administrative capital, Putrajaya.

The meeting between Mahathir and the former Secretary General of the Ministry of Finance, Tan Sri Samsuddin Hitam [ms] had led to the realisation of this idea.

At the size of 142,000 m2 (1,530,000 sq ft), the overall cost amounted to RM 54 million, which was considered the most expensive SBP ever built in Malaysia.

[3] The school gradually shifted from the Cheras campus to Putrajaya to make way for the oncoming opening ceremony.

[16][3] A year later, on 30 March 2007, SAS was granted the title Cluster School of Excellence (Malay: Sekolah Kluster Kecemerlangan) by the former Minister of Education, Dato’ Sri Hishamuddin Hussin.

[11] SAS was also named as a High Performance School (Malay: Sekolah Berprestasi Tinggi) on 25 January 2011.

The celebration was visited by the sixth Prime Minister, Dato Seri Najib Abdul Razak, who donated RM1 million to the school at the time of celebration, former Deputy Minister of Education Dr Mohd Puad Zarkashi and former Director General of Education Tan Sri Ghafar Mahmud.

The celebration included a gala night, marching formations, performance by multiple groups such as Alam Shah Wind Orchestra (ASWO) and Gamelan Tradisional SAS (GATRASAS), as well as gallery walks relating to the history and performance of the school.

Blazonry[19] The logo consists of a red “Old French” escutcheon (shield) with yellow per bend sinister motive.

A blue circle with the crescent and the 14-pointed Federal Star (Bintang Persekutuan) is located in the middle of the shield.

Located below the book is a small blue banderole bearing the motto of the school ‘Chita Usaha Jaya’.

Below the shield, a simple black compartment is added and a blue banderole containing the words “Sultan Alam Shah Putrajaya”, denoting the school's name, is included.

The blue field represents unity and calmness, while the middle position of the blazonry indicates the thorough acceptance of education.
