It is aimed to show the potential of attachment theory to anticipate and explain phenomena associated with social functioning and achievement at school. The author puts forward a thesis for two paths by which attachment quality would impact on school achievement. The indirect path is in the relationship between quality of attachment and the development of cognitive processes, while the direct path follows the impact of attachment style on the quality of a child’s relationships with teachers and peers. This in turn influences level of educational attainment."]
