I am only 13 years old but I really need a descent answer for this question. Whether it is good or bad I need to know. But anwyay, when I was in Year 8 I went to a party after school one day and everyone was smoking weed. Then I went to school the next day and I was emptying out my bag because I couldn't find my school book and a small bud of weed fell out in a small see through bag and unfortonately a teacher saw. My parents got called into the school and I got suspended for 1.5 days however I did not got arrested, I got offered help to get my 'problem' sorted out so I wouldn't get a conviction which was so lucky. But anyway I want to be an airline pilot when Im older, and I am planning to emigrate to Australia in a few years time as soon I have completed my GCSE's. I will get flying lessons and everything which requires to be a pilot, but will they find out about the suspension in School even though I will be roughly 25 years of age? If I have my license, my qualifications and obviously not a conviction, will they find out?

Cheers

I doubt they will know- although you need to knock drugs on the head. Being a pilot is a responsible job and you will be subject to random drug tests on a regular basis. My brother is a helicopter pilot- and he had been in minor trouble before age 16 and it has never caused problems
no, they won't take account of things handled in school (apart from exam results of course). But the last thing anyone wants is a doped-up pilot flying their jumbo. Every so often pilots get arrested for being drunk before they get onto their planes, and boy am I glad they do.
everyone at the party was smoking weed???? What sort of a party did you go to at 8 years old where that happened???? Where was the responsible adult!!!! How could an 8 year old get a conviction???? that is just biot possible in thsi country. You may have been taken into care!!!! you did not got arrested!!!! why would you??? you were (supposedly) 8.

I could go on but it all seems kinda pointless. Oh but how did u have a problem, with weed if that was your first and last time using it???? I am definately knocking this in the head now it is just beyond belief.
Dot, that's Year 8 not age 8
ADW, the suspension is not likely to be mentioned and in any case was not a conviction. You were so very very lucky and always be grateful to whichever god, angel or uber-being was looking out for you. ie don't ever even think it might be a good idea ever again.
Dot, sadly by Year 8 ie second year of secondary school, many children have been exposed to worse things than weed.

To everyone who replied back -

you might of got confused between Year 8 and the age 8. I meant a school year 8, so I would've been 12/13 (but was actually 13 when the suspension happened).

But I appreciate all of your comments so much. And yes, jno and benchmarrow I agree with you completely. My dad has a similiar job except he is a captain of a ship and goes all round the world and he gets tested medically so I will follow on.

But again, your answers are valued

Thanks
