“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

In re Chromatic v. Westminster: On the Collapse of Credentialism and the Strength of Homeschooling



⟡ On the Futility of Degrees ⟡

Filed: 4 September 2025
Reference: SWANK/DEGREES/HOMESCHOOL
Download PDF: 2025-09-04_Addendum_FutilityOfDegrees_StrengthOfHomeschool.pdf
Summary: When degrees can be dismissed at will, institutional schooling is exposed as hollow; homeschooling emerges as the rational, protective alternative.


I. What Happened

• The mother’s advanced degrees in Human Development and Psychology were dismissed, despite direct relevance to child welfare and safeguarding.
• Social workers with narrower qualifications were privileged as “authorities,” while broader interdisciplinary expertise was ignored.
• The children expressed clear preference for homeschooling, reporting stability, security, and enjoyment.
• Despite surveillance and interference, homeschooling and professional work continued, reinforcing continuity and resilience.


II. What the Document Establishes

• Credential Collapse – If degrees can be erased selectively, formal schooling offers no assurance of respect or recognition.
• Homeschool Strength – Homeschool centres on truth, stability, and knowledge, immune from institutional prejudice.
• Children’s Welfare – Homeschool provided consistent asthma routines, stable education, and emotional grounding.
• Philosophical Contrast – Credentialism produces fragile paperwork; homeschooling produces enduring knowledge.
• Economic Logic – Homeschool reduces reliance on public systems, while LA obstruction wastes resources on hostility and duplication.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

• To record that Westminster’s dismissal of academic training undermines the legitimacy of credentialism itself.
• To preserve homeschooling as the rational response when institutional prejudice nullifies earned qualifications.
• To declare that resilience in home education outlives the fragility of institutional paper.
• To enshrine the Mirror Court doctrine: where credentialism collapses, homeschooling ascends.


IV. Applicable Standards & Violations

• Education Act 1996, s.7 – Parents’ statutory right and duty to home educate.
• Article 2, Protocol 1, ECHR – Right to education, with parental direction.
• Article 8, ECHR – Disproportionate interference with family and educational life.
• Article 14, ECHR – Discriminatory disregard of parental qualifications and disability-linked choices.
• UNCRC, Arts. 3, 9, 12, 24 & 28 – Best interests ignored, separation pursued, children’s voices silenced, rights to health and education obstructed.


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not education. This is credential theatre, exposed.

• We do not accept credential erasure as authority.
• We reject hostility as “support.”
• We will document that homeschooling, pursued under fire, proves both rationality and resilience.

In re Chromatic v. Westminster: On the Continuation of Work and Homeschool Despite Institutional Hostility



⟡ Resilience in the Face of Sabotage ⟡

Filed: 2 September 2025
Reference: SWANK/HOMESCHOOL/RESILIENCE
Download PDF: 2025-09-02_Addendum_WorkAndHomeschoolDespiteObstruction.pdf
Summary: Despite sabotage, homeschooling and work continued — evidence of resilience, stability, and suitability.


I. What Happened

• Homeschooling continued with lessons, creative projects, and routines — even under surveillance and contact restrictions.
• The children consistently expressed their enjoyment of homeschooling and frustration when it was disrupted.
• The mother pursued professional projects (SWANK London Ltd., tutoring, creative work) despite accusations and interruptions.
• Local Authority interference came in the form of visits, fabricated diagnoses, and accusations — yet stability was rebuilt after each disruption.


II. What the Document Establishes

• Persistence – Continuity of work and homeschool despite obstruction.
• Children’s Voices – Preference for homeschooling ignored, silencing their agency.
• Medical Necessity – Homeschooling supported consistent asthma management; disruption exacerbated symptoms.
• Economic Logic – Private work and home education reduced reliance on public resources, while the LA wasted funds on hostile duplication.
• Rights Breach – Interference in parental work and education violated both domestic statute and international treaties.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

• To record that resilience defeated sabotage.
• To prove that accusations of “instability” collapse against consistent evidence of continuity.
• To demonstrate that Local Authority hostility produced harm, while the mother’s actions produced stability.
• To preserve this as precedent: work and homeschooling are not vulnerabilities but safeguards of family life.


IV. Applicable Standards & Violations

• Education Act 1996, s.7 – Parents’ statutory duty and right to secure education.
• Article 2, Protocol 1, ECHR – Right to education, with parental direction.
• Article 8, ECHR – Family and educational life interfered with without justification.
• Article 14, ECHR – Disability discrimination through disregard of asthma needs.
• UNCRC, Arts. 3, 9, 12, 24 & 28 – Best interests ignored, separation imposed, children silenced, health and education obstructed.


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not instability. This is resilience, archived.

• We do not accept obstruction as evidence of weakness.
• We reject sabotage disguised as safeguarding.
• We will document that work and homeschool, sustained under fire, prove capacity, stability, and truth.
