    The best thing would probably be to talk with the teachers who told you this, and ask them more about what they've noticed and what they recommend now, because they have surely seen autism before and will have ideas about how to help your son. If he needs a test, one recommended by the school or your doctor is the safest way. In the meantime if you have a look at this list of symptoms you can get an idea of what to look for in your son.

      There is no test that you can have just done or taken. You need to ask your child's doctor to give you the name of a good Psychiatrist who understands the Autistic Spectrum.The teachers can give information that can help to diagnose your child. Some of the behaviors are:
      Trouble making friends or with thier peers
      Inflexible specific routines or rituals
      Repetitvie or unusual use of language or lack of language
      Peroccupation with certain objects or subjects
      Unusual hand gestures when talking
      Some may have one or more or even different behaviors
      The Doctors will use observations of your's and the teachers to help to decide your child's diagnosis. Be free and honest with any questions that the doctors will give.Don't be afraid to answer truthfully as only the truth can help your child. I have been in your shoes. I have a child with Aspergers.Which is part of the Autistic spectrum.You can look on- line for more information.
