Summary: Assessment with Tammy Surgenor caused preventable injury by disregarding medical limits; a textbook case of disability discrimination and institutional folly.
I. What Happened
• On 2 September 2025, Tammy Surgenor conducted an assessment that required prolonged speech.
• The mother, with documented sewer-gas induced dysphonia and asthma, was compelled to speak without breaks.
• The result: acute pain, burning in the throat, hoarseness, and impaired communication for the rest of the day.
• Requested adjustments — written responses, breaks, reduced vocal use — were ignored.
II. What the Document Establishes
• Medical Harm – A preventable exacerbation of disability symptoms.
• Procedural Breach – Duty to support parents (Children Act 1989, s.17) abandoned.
• Rights Violations – Equality Act 2010, Article 14 ECHR, and Article 6 ECHR (fair trial participation) ignored.
• Systemic Pattern – Another entry in a catalogue already crowded with neglect: hospitals denying asthma, schools undermining homeschooling, LA dismissing credentials.
• Institutional Folly – To demand endless speech from a litigant with a documented vocal impairment is not only cruel but absurd.
III. Why SWANK Logged It
• To record that Westminster mistook endurance for compliance.
• To demonstrate that forcing pain was not an accident but a foreseeable consequence of disregard.
• To expose that safeguarding has been inverted: what should have protected caused harm.
• To preserve the humiliation of an institution that could not even administer an assessment without injuring the parent it claimed to evaluate.
IV. Applicable Standards & Violations
• Children Act 1989, s.17 – Duty to support families disregarded.
• Equality Act 2010 – Failure to provide reasonable adjustments.
• Article 6, ECHR – Fair trial rights impaired by preventing effective participation.
• Article 14, ECHR – Discriminatory treatment of disability.
• UNCRC, Art. 3 – Best interests of the child undermined when their mother is silenced.
V. SWANK’s Position
This is not safeguarding. This is the spectacle of bureaucrats breaking voices to preserve paperwork.
• We do not accept cruelty masked as procedure.
• We reject assessments that harm more than they measure.
• We will document that Westminster’s “evaluation” has become the very evidence of its incompetence.
