English term

academic and disciplinary probation

English to Polish Other Education / Pedagogy primary and secondary education in the US
"I was on a academic and disciplinary probation"
The sentence was said by a man telling a story about himself. He had some issues and problems with the law and education already as a preteen. How should I tackle this phrase? I am translating subtitles, so the equivalent should be short.

I'll think about it too
First, I had to be sure I am on the right track. Shorter? Let me think about it (and other too).
Paweł Kasprzyk (asker) Jun 5, 2014:
Shorter? Would it be possible to shorten this phrase? I have to use in in subtitles.

For a student, disciplinary probation means that the student is on formal notice, and subject to special rules and regulations. The violation of these rules may lead to more severe forms of discipline, such as suspension, dismissal, and expulsion - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disciplinary_probation

college/university

Students are placed on academic probation if their cumulative UC GPA falls below 2.0.

Students are also placed on academic probation if their "term" or semester UC GPA falls below 1.5 for one semester. (Your overall UC GPA may still be above a 2.0 but because of the results from one term, you will be considered a probationary student.) - http://ls-probation.berkeley.edu/definition.html

Zawieszenie is technically suspension. Probation is a period during which the student must show improvement scholastically and in behavior.

Disciplinary probation is a disciplinary status that can apply to students at a higher educational institution[1] or to employees in the workplace.[2] For employees, it can result from both poor performance at work or from misconduct.[2] For students, it results from misconduct alone, poor academic performance instead resulting in scholastic probation.
