A formal complaint to Ofqual regarding social worker Kirsty Hornal’s dubious claim to hold examining authority over children’s GCSE outcomes — despite having no such accreditation.
I. What Happened
In the midst of a safeguarding escalation, Kirsty Hornal casually implied that she was a GCSE examiner and could therefore judge educational progress.
She was not listed with any examining body.
She was not qualified.
And she wasn’t joking.
The mother did what Westminster never does: she checked. Then she filed.
II. What the Complaint Establishes
That Kirsty Hornal misrepresented her professional qualifications
That the misrepresentation was made in an official safeguarding context
That the claim could intimidate or mislead parents regarding academic oversight
That Ofqual has no record of her as an examiner or moderator
III. Why SWANK Filed It
Because safeguarding is not a stage for delusions of grandeur.
Because false academic authority is a legal problem — not a personality quirk.
And because if parents must prove credentials to homeschool, then social workers must prove theirs to critique it.
IV. Violations Identified
Misrepresentation of Professional Qualifications
Potential Undue Influence on Parental Decision-Making
Breach of Ethical Standards in Safeguarding Dialogue
Abuse of Power via False Academic Authority
Institutional Failure to Vet Claims Made by Staff
V. SWANK’s Position
If you are not qualified to grade GCSEs, you are not qualified to weaponise them.
This wasn’t a harmless flex. It was a professional falsehood with legal consequences.
Kirsty claimed a title she didn’t earn — and now it’s been reported to the people who actually decide grades.
Let’s see who gets marked down.
