Summary: Public schooling fails to meet intellectual, cultural, and health needs; safeguarding requires more than attendance.
I. What Happened
The Director’s children were placed in public school settings that failed to meet their intellectual and welfare needs. They require higher stimulation, tailored engagement, and structured routines — provision already achieved at home through homeschooling and SWANK-based projects. Public school provision, while broadly suitable for many, was inadequate for children with such intellectual curiosity and health vulnerabilities.
II. What the Document Establishes
Mismatch of Provision: A general curriculum cannot substitute for individualised intellectual support.
Proven Home Success: Documented homeschooling provided stimulation, structure, and measurable academic progress.
Health Integration: Asthma management requires rest, predictability, and low-exposure environments — not guaranteed in schools.
Parental Authority: With doctoral-level expertise in Human Development and professorial lineage, the Director is uniquely placed to educate.
Risk of Harm: Under-stimulation and unsuitable routines risk regression, boredom, and exacerbation of medical needs.
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Legal relevance: Education must serve welfare, not attendance.
Pattern recognition: Records the erasure of parental expertise and medical needs in favour of bureaucratic uniformity.
Historical preservation: Captures Britain’s systemic inability to accommodate advanced educational or health-sensitive provision.
Doctrinal force: Establishes “Education as Welfare, Not Attendance” as a Mirror Court principle.
IV. Applicable Standards & Violations
Children Act 1989, ss.1 & 22(4)-(5) – welfare principle and duty to consult ignored.
ECHR, Article 2, Protocol 1 – right to education requires suitability, not mere access.
ECHR, Article 8 – interference with family life where parental authority is disregarded.
Equality Act 2010, s.149 – failure to accommodate disability-related needs.
UNCRC, Articles 3, 29, 30 – best interests, full development of talents, and cultural identity disregarded.
Case Law:
Re G (Education: Welfare Evaluation) – parental wishes are relevant.
Re B-S (2013) – least interventionist option must be chosen.
V. SWANK’s Position
This is not safeguarding.
This is attendance mistaken for welfare.
SWANK does not accept bureaucratic substitution of schooling for education.
SWANK rejects denial of intellectual and health needs as lawful safeguarding.
SWANK records that forcing unsuitable public school provision is a failure of duty, not protection.
In Mirror Court terms: to confuse attendance with education is to mistake motion for progress, and progress for welfare.
