Antoine may be from a good school (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

etonian

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a good school' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'antoine may be' is the wordplay.
'may be' indicates anagramming the letters.
'antoine' is an anagram of 'ETONIAN'.

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
