“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Re: The Cycle of Asthmatic Futility


Velvet Pedagogy of Asthmatic Futility

(On the Manufactured Instability of Forced Schooling)

Filed under: Education Misuse, Medical Retaliation, Institutional Harm
Reference Code: SWANK–EDU–CYCLE
Filed by: Polly Chromatic, Director

I. What Happened

The Local Authority has perfected a ritual: each child is sent into the coliseum of mainstream schooling despite clear medical contraindications. Predictably, asthma attacks ensue, absences multiply, and hospital attendances mount.

The response? Not recognition of illness, but the alchemy of bureaucratic blame — absences transfigured into parental fault, medical truth rebranded as “neglect.”

II. What the Complaint Establishes

That Westminster has not only failed in its safeguarding duty, but has weaponised education into an instrument of surveillance and accusation.

The children thrived only under structured home education, praised by the very authority that now condemns it. The only stability achieved was the very stability they dismantled.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because one must record the absurd: that state-manufactured instability is then cited as proof of parental instability. It is the ouroboros of safeguarding—an institutional serpent swallowing its own negligence, with children as collateral.

IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, s.1: Paramountcy of welfare trampled beneath procedural dogma.

  • ECHR Article 8: Family life and medical integrity obliterated in favour of administrative convenience.

  • Equality Act 2010: Disability discrimination cloaked as “educational concern.”

V. SWANK’s Position

We reject the cycle. We reject the theatre of forced placements and their performative collapse. SWANK asserts that stability was not elusive — it was actively dismantled.

Home education was lawful, successful, and safeguarded. Its destruction was not safeguarding, but state-manufactured harm.
