Communication and interaction include children on the autism spectrum (ASD) or with speech, language and communication needs (SLCN) and all children and young people who have difficulties in communicating with others.

This could be because they have difficulty saying what they want, understanding what is being said to them, or not understanding the social rules of communication.

Children and young people with ASD are likely to have particular difficulties with social interaction. They may also experience difficulties with language, communication, and imagination, which can impact how they relate to others.
