History edit
It began in 1958 with the name of Sekolah Menengah Telok Anson commemorating Telok Anson. During that time, some students had to study at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Sultan Abdul Aziz while the buildings for the school were under construction. By 1964, the buildings were complete and were officially opened by Sultan Idris Shah of Perak on January 17, 1965. At that time the school was lacking in proper amenities because there were only few blocks built including few classes, a science lab, an ERT room, a boys hostel, and two houses for teachers. In 1971 more blocks were built such as a big hall and a block for Physics, Chemistry, and Biology labs
In commemoration of the state of Perak, the school was renamed in 1974 as Sekolah Menengah Seri Perak replacing the name of Sekolah Menengah Telok Anson, followed by the formation of Form 6 Science Stream.
In 1986, three more buildings were built including 10 classrooms and one staffroom and were opened by Perak's YB Menteri Besar, Dato' Sri Ramli Ngah Talib. In 1995 a lecture hall was built, with other buildings in 2002 and 2007.
