Historic UK school, insurance company and 4 more fall into administration – full list

Multiple UK businesses, including a 700-year-old school, an airline, and an insurance company, have entered administration due to rising costs and financial pressures. Ruthin School, founded in 1284, is closing after being acquired by a Chinese-owned education group in 2023, leaving over 100 staff at risk of redundancy and 240 students needing new placements. Eastern Airlines, based in North Lincolnshire, ceased operations after failing to secure a rescue deal despite having operated 200 flights daily. G2 Housing Group Ltd, a sustainable construction firm based in Hampshire, and RPA1 Ltd, a social housing company, also entered administration. These closures reflect broader economic challenges facing UK businesses in 2026.
