The Muallim District is the eleventh district of the state of Perak, Malaysia, situated at the southeastern tip of the state, bordering the state of Selangor. It was proclaimed by the current Sultan of Perak, Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah on 11 January 2016 at the Tanjung Malim District Council Building.[4][5] The district was previously part of the neighbouring Batang Padang district.
It covers an area of 93,435-hectares of land.[6]
The district includes the towns of Slim River, Behrang, Tanjung Malim and Proton City.[7] It was given the name Muallim, the Arabic word for "teacher", because of the Sultan Idris Education University in the district. The university has produced many teachers since the colonial era.
