 However, due to political and public pressure, it was established as SMK Simpang Lima, a public secondary school and not as a vocational school as per planned.After six years of service, there was a move by the school's Parent-Teacher Association with recommendation from the District Education Office of Sabak Bernam, to elevate the school status into a religious boarding school.This proposal was accepted by the Ministry of Education and the Selangor Education Department.
