“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

Kind Words. No Action. Real Harm.


⟡ “She Was Nice — and She Did Nothing.” ⟡
The kindest neglect is still neglect. Especially when it comes in email form.

This is the formal complaint to Social Work England about Kirsty Hornal — not for aggression, but for empathy without action. Polly Chromatic’s health was collapsing, her rights were known, and her accessibility needs were repeatedly affirmed — but never enforced. The result: procedural decay disguised as gentle concern.

I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic disclosed her legal and medical status.
She asked for written-only contact.
She explained that unannounced visits caused trauma, panic, and medical deterioration.
Kirsty Hornal agreed — and did nothing.

She said she would contact Dr. Philip Reid.
She didn’t.
She acknowledged the sewer gas exposure and respiratory crisis.
She let others keep coming.

Nice emails. Zero protection.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That Kirsty acknowledged Eosinophilic Asthma, Muscle Tension Dysphonia, and written-only adjustments

  • That despite awareness, she allowed verbal pressure, visits, and distress to continue

  • That medical evidence, safety risks, and retraumatisation were dismissed by inaction

  • That no attempt was made to support Polly’s legal rights or safeguard her and her disabled children

  • That passivity replaced protection, even as the crisis escalated

III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because being "sympathetic" while people suffer isn't professional — it’s negligent.
Because it’s easier to ignore a fire when you’re holding a teacup.
Because good intentions don’t count when harm is systemic and preventable.
And because Polly Chromatic isn’t collecting compliments — she’s collecting evidence.

IV. Violations Identified

  • Standard 1.2, 1.3, 1.5, 1.6 – Failure to uphold social justice, inclusion, and protection of rights

  • Standard 2.1, 2.4, 2.5 – Inadequate follow-through despite acknowledged trust

  • Standard 3.1, 3.3, 3.9, 3.13 – Lack of action in a known medical and safeguarding risk context

  • Standard 5.1, 5.5 – Continued emotional harm through unchecked and discriminatory practice

  • Standard 6.3 – Failure to support the complaint process or escalate concerns

V. SWANK’s Position

Polly Chromatic didn’t ask for empathy.
She asked for intervention.
Kirsty gave the first and avoided the second.

This wasn’t malice — but it wasn’t neutral either.
It was harm, dressed nicely.
And now it’s dressed in PDF.

She Asked for Safety. They Offered a Sandwich.


⟡ “I Can’t Breathe — But I’m Glad You Got Your Lunch.” ⟡
Disability disclosure met with a sandwich and a smile.

Filed: 24 January 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCC/EMAIL-30
📎 Download PDF – 2025-01-24_SWANK_Email_KirstyHornal_PanicDisabilityDisclosure_ResponseTone.pdf
A heartbreaking message from the parent — articulating the cause and mechanics of her panic attacks — answered with casual deflection, false warmth, and an offer to “help yourself” to Kirsty’s forgotten groceries. This wasn’t a dialogue. It was a lesson in how institutions perform compassion while ignoring its meaning.

I. What Happened

She explained:
– That panic attacks are triggered by institutional abandonment.
– That she feels unsafe speaking because she’s been reported and punished for it.
– That verbal communication worsens her symptoms, despite her love of talking.
– That this began with the sewer gas incident in October 2023.

She asked for help.
She asked to be read.
And Kirsty said,
“Have a lovely week — and enjoy my lunch.”

II. What the Email Establishes

  • That the parent clearly disclosed panic triggers and verbal disability context

  • That her medical and emotional needs were expressed in direct, reasonable terms

  • That Kirsty Hornal’s reply focused on tone, not substance

  • That her response trivialised the seriousness of the disclosure

  • That an opportunity for meaningful support was reduced to polite optics

III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because disability isn’t cured with courgette salad.
Because saying “no worries” to a panic disclosure is not care — it’s erasure.
Because when someone tells you they can’t breathe,
you don’t change the subject to groceries.
And because archival silence is safer than performative replies.

IV. Violations Identified

  • Failure to Acknowledge Medical Disclosure with Clinical or Procedural Support

  • Emotional Minimisation of Disability-Linked Distress

  • Institutional Tone-Policing in Response to Genuine Distress

  • Dereliction of Duty to Investigate Impact of Prior Environmental Hazard (sewer gas)

  • Continued Retaliatory Impacts Following October 2023 Environmental Incident

V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t a moment of kindness.
It was a moment of containment.
She told them she couldn’t talk.
She told them she was scared.
She told them what would help.

And they told her:
Help yourself to lunch.

Now we’re helping ourselves —
to a permanent record.

They Called It Safeguarding. I Called It a Complaint.


⟡ SWANK Education Misconduct Archive ⟡

“The Headteacher Was Informed. She Chose Retaliation.”
Filed: 22 April 2025
Reference: SWANK/DRAYTON/COMPLAINT/KAPOOR-PRITCHARD

I. The Bruise Was Explained. They Filed Anyway.

This formal complaint, issued to Headteacher Annabelle Kapoor of Drayton Park Primary School, is not a plea.
It is a record of misconduct served with judicial tone.

It outlines:

  • A harmless bruise, fully explained

  • False statements to a disabled child, including lies about his siblings

  • Procedural safeguarding theatre with no legal basis

  • And a documented refusal to follow the family’s known disability communication adjustments

The bruise was incidental.

The referral was intentional.

II. What the Complaint Names

  • Ben Pritchard: Assistant Head, primary architect of the fabricated safeguarding panic

  • Annabelle Kapoor: Headteacher, informed of all facts, yet permitted escalation

  • Failures to:

    • Prevent foreseeable emotional harm to a vulnerable child

    • Uphold the family’s established safeguarding background and civil history

This was not ignorance.

It was administrative retaliation in a school lanyard.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this is what education now resembles:

  • Disability dismissed as inconvenience

  • Parental knowledge reframed as obstruction

  • Procedural sabotage masquerading as “concern”

We filed this because:

  • They knew the medical facts

  • They knew the communication protocol

  • They knew the safeguarding trauma history

And they called social services anyway.

This is not a complaint.

It is a forensic correction to the fiction they filed.

IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept false safeguarding referrals as “erring on the side of caution.”
We do not allow bruises to be mined for narrative.
We do not permit schools to use disability as a flag for removal.

Let the record show:

The child was safe.
The bruise was explained.
The school was informed.
And the retaliation — is now archived.

This wasn’t about the child.
It was about institutional revenge for a parent who dared to say no.

Interrogated Without Cause. Referred Without Truth.


⟡ SWANK Archive: Education Misconduct Dossier ⟡

“He Was Stuttering. They Weren’t Listening.”
Filed: 14 November 2022
Reference: SWANK/EDUCATION/DRAYTON-PARK/INTERROGATION-DISPUTE
📎 Download PDF – 2022-11-14_SWANK_DraytonPark_SafeguardingReferral_Dispute_KingInterview.pdf

I. They Called It a Check-In. It Was an Interrogation.

On an otherwise unremarkable school day in November 2022, staff at Drayton Park Primary subjected a disabled child to a closed-door safeguarding interview without parental knowledge or cause.

The trigger?

“Something he said.”

The outcome?

An anxious child, an unlawful referral, and a letter of unimpressed correction.

This wasn’t safeguarding.

It was suspicion — masquerading as support and delivered without consent.

II. What the Letter Documents

  • A school-initiated interview with a child already known to be vulnerable

  • The child distressed and stammering, described in staff notes — yet interrogated further

  • The school failing to:

    • Notify the parent before or after

    • Review contextual medical background

    • Protect against emotional aggravation of disability

  • A fabricated or distorted safeguarding referral issued without procedural basis

No safeguarding threshold was met.

And yet, the referral was made.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this is what schools now do:

  • Equate neurodivergence with risk

  • Use child-led statements to fabricate adult-led crises

  • Assume a parental absence of knowledge — and institutional supremacy in interpretation

We filed this letter because:

  • The child did not need protection

  • He needed to be believed

  • And his mother was not absent — she was already filing

This isn’t about one staff member.
It is about the institutional comfort with asking questions they aren’t qualified to interpret.

IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept covert interviews of disabled children.
We do not accept safeguarding language weaponised for convenience.
We do not accept referral theatre.

Let the record show:

The child was stammering.
The staff continued.
The mother responded.
And now — the record is public.

This wasn’t protection.
It was interrogation without jurisdiction.
And SWANK does not redact the names of those who breached it.
