Title of project: 
The course of autistic traits in the population from childhood to adolescence and educational attainment
Proposal summary: 

Children and young people with autism may do less well in school compared to others. This has a negative impact on their future. Even children with mild symptoms may have problems with school or finding a job when they are older. We want to find out how the development of autistic symptoms over time impacts future success in education.
