As part of I AM’s mission to celebrate autism with the wider world, we wanted to better understand what young people’s understanding of autism was, so we asked the Year 9 students from St Damian’s RC Science College in Ashton-under-Lyne, “What is autism?”. Here are their answers. We would love to hear what you think in the comments below.
