“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

They Called It Informal. Now We Call It Evidence.


⟡ If You Needed Proof I Complied, I Have Eight Years of It. ⟡

I. A Department With No System. A Parent With Every Receipt.

This document archives eight years of documented attempts to homeschool lawfully and with dignity — made not through structured portals or reply systems, but through:

  • Text messages

  • Facebook chats

  • Informal reassurances

  • And promises never formalised

At the centre of it: Mark Garland, the ever-polite emissary of an education department that never once processed a reply that mattered.

He never said no.
He just never gave a confirmation that meant yes.

II. The Archive Is Not Angry. It Is Exhausted.

This is not a collection of casual updates.
It is a record of institutional procrastination, professional vagueness, and the quiet weaponisation of friendliness.

  • The parent asked for forms.

  • The parent offered reports.

  • The parent sent updates.

  • The department offered … delay.

And when that delay turned into suspicion, SWANK published the log.

III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because no parent should be punished for being organised.
Because no lawful education plan should live in a private inbox.
Because when a system refuses to formalise approval, it reserves the right to weaponise your silence.

This document exists:

  • To end ambiguity

  • To pre-empt reinvention

  • To force the institution to see what it already received

You don’t get to lose a document that never left the chat window.

IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not submit eight years of communication just to be told the inbox was unmonitored.
We do not allow soft-spoken men to be used as human shields for departmental failure.
We do not consider tone an excuse for policy failure.

Let the record show:

  • The messages were sent

  • The child was educated

  • The silence was noted

  • And SWANK — filed every screen, every year, every reply

This is not outreach.
This is institutional erosion — timestamped.
