Mastery learning instructional strategy should be given prominence in teacher education programmes in higher tertiary institutions to enable the pre-service teachers acquire necessary knowledge and skill on the strategy and fresh graduates from Colleges of Education employed in nomadic schools should be sensitized on the benefits of mastery learning instructional strategy by school administrators using symposium and other available means to avoid attrition.
