Welcome to random Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a random Wikipedia page every day.

The random article for Wednesday, 19 May 2021 is Howell's School, Denbigh.

Howell's School Denbigh (Welsh: Ysgol Howell Dinbych) was an independent girls only school located in Denbigh, Denbighshire. The school taught girls from the age of 3 up to 18 and contained a pre-prep, preparatory, senior and sixth form. The school was established in 1859 with funding from Thomas Howell's trustees who later established Howell's School Llandaff in 1860. The school had many facilities including a sports hall, 120 acres of grounds and an equestrian centre. In the 2011 Telegraph Independent League Table results Howell's School came 298th in the UK with 22.03% A* Grade and 45.79% A* or A grade. Following some years of decline in numbers, and a series of tribunals involving staff wrongfully dismissed amid allegations of poor management, the school announced on 2 August 2013 that it would not be reopening for the next academic year citing financial difficulties as the primary reason, although this is disputed. The school went into liquidation on 22 August 2013 following a meeting with creditors.

A new co-educational independent school, Myddelton College, opened on the site in 2016.
