Maktab Sabah (English: Sabah College) is a two-session secondary school located in the city of Kota Kinabalu, in the State of Sabah, Malaysia. The school was established in the year 1957, making Sabah College a historical institution as it was formed before the independence of Sabah.
As of the year 2021, the school has approximately 100 teachers and over 1300 students.
Establishment of Sabah College was suggested by the first education director of the North Borneo government, PE Perry in 1947. The purpose of this school is to help and provide education to potential and bright local children in North Borneo. Among the proposed construction sites are Likas (current SM All Saints site), Kepayan and current Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Finally, in 1955, the Civil Aviation Department site has been chosen to be the site of Sabah College with an area of 16.77acres which includes 6acres of sports field area, 4.8acres of residential areas and the rest is the school. In 1956 its construction plans had been proposed to the British Government and granted.
During the construction project the Colonial Development Welfare has funded 90% of the cost. While the rest was contributed by local sources. The first intake consist of 85 students and 95 teachers. Only selected students which passed special exam were chosen to study at Maktab Sabah. The school acting principal was Buckley. In the same year, Geoffrey Clarke was appointed as the very first principal of Sabah College.
At the end of 1957 this school was moved to a new site near the current Secretariat building. In 1958 Form Six classes started with limited facility of classes lessons.
Then, in 1960, Sabah College once again moved to a new site.
