Immature social skills

Do young children with slightly behind social skills eventually catch up? My 5 year old son seems so much less mature than those in his year at school.

IM 90% confident there's not an underlying issue. He was an early talker, hit all his milestones when he was supposed to etc. But he's a january baby and his social skills seem a mile away from the October bambinos! On the plus side he is hilarious but just doesn't know when to rein it in ! Walked in during circle time at the end of his cubs class the other day....he was the only one not listening. Hed choosen that moment to share a self penned poo rhyme to the girl next to him. At the top of his voice. 🙄

Has anyone else been in the same boat and come out the other side? how soon after starting school did this happen? He's my only one so nothing to compare with.

*sigh

I would be tempted to talk to his Teacher, they'll know him better than anyone on here and might have more of a clue of whether he needs a little support or he'll get there on his own soon.

If he talked very early, do you think he may be hyoerlexic?
