🎓 SAVE RUTHIN SCHOOL! Parents and supporters are rallying to rescue the historic Ruthin School after a sudden closure announcement. This treasured Welsh institution, over 700 years old, is facing an uncertain future after its owners declared bankruptcy. 😢
The campaign, Save Ruthin School, is diving into options like a potential buyout, leasing the site, or even creating a not-for-profit educational trust to keep the doors open. With a deadline looming, volunteers, including past students and parents, are coming together to hatch a rescue plan. 🛠️📚
Founded in the 13th century, Ruthin School is more than just an academic establishment—it’s a piece of heritage for the local community. Parents and staff are devastated at the thought of closing its doors forever, impacting 100+ employees and many students.
Campaigners are inspired by the successful parent buyout of St Clare’s School in Porthcawl, which shows that community action can indeed save schools from closure. 🌟 Supporters say the school is viable with increased local recruitment and rebuilding international student numbers.
A protest has already been held, and spirits are high among those determined to see Ruthin School thrive once more. Let’s keep this cherished educational gem alive! 📢❤️
