Historic UK school open for 742 years to permanently close down as pupils left in tears

Ruthin School, a historic UK institution founded in 1284 and among the oldest educational establishments in the country, is set to permanently close after 742 years of operation. The school, located in North Wales, was acquired by Chinese-owned Galaxy Global Education Group in early 2023 but has now entered financial administration. Over 100 staff members face redundancy, and around 240 students must seek new schools. Despite recent accolades such as being named the top independent school in North Wales and featuring in national rankings, the school could not sustain itself financially. Parents expressed deep sadness, with some describing emotional reactions from their children upon learning of the closure. Galaxy Global Education Group apologized for the decision, stating they made every effort to ensure the school's future but were unable to find a financially viable solution.
