The article presents the results of empirical studies of successful performance in students with different types of attachment. The following research methods were chosen: conversation method, questionnaires, projective technique and testing method represented by the following procedures: "Adult Attachment Interview", projective drawing techniques, "Mother and Child". A significant difference between the successes of training in high school students was noted with avoidant type of attachment  with  respect  to  students  with  reliable  and  ambivalent  types.  Students with a reliable and ambivalent attachment styles are more successful in their performance, those with avoidant attachment style are less successful. The worst performance of students with avoiding attachment types can be explained by the fact that they are unlikely to perceive criticism positively, it is difficult for them to build trust relationships with adults and peers, they have inherent infantile behavior. The results of the study provide a basis for the development of programs aimed at preventing school failure prospective students and increase the success of learning in students who are in the learning process.
