All the 179 teachers constituted a sample for the study which is census from the 59 schools. The researchers designed a migrant fisherfolks education questionnaire (MFEQ) for teachers to gather data for the study. The questionnaire consisted of Likert-type items to elicit information. The reliability coefficient of the instrument was ascertained using Pearson Product Moment Correlation which gave the value of 0.92. Two research questions guided the study and two null hypotheses were formulated and tested for statistical significance at .05 alpha levels using one-way analysis of variance and chi-square (x 2 ). The results showed that significant relationships exist between adequate teachers, appropriate teaching methods and effective implementation of the education of migrant fisherfolks’ children. Based on these findings, recommendations were proffered which include recruitment of qualified teachers and the use of appropriate teaching methods such as mastery learning approaches and total quality management of learning.
