Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition affecting communication, social interaction, behaviour and sensory processing. Individuals may experience differences in social understanding, repetitive behaviours and responses to sensory stimuli. Assessment involves developmental history, clinical observation and specialist evaluation. Support may include educational adjustments, psychological interventions and multidisciplinary care.
