Doctor may bless the school gathering (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

assembly

'the school gathering' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'doctor may bless' is the wordplay.
'doctor' indicates anagramming the letters.
'may'+'bless'='maybless'
'maybless' anagrammed gives 'ASSEMBLY'.

(Other definitions for assembly that I've seen before include "Gathering, congregation" , "School morning gathering" , "A gathering for formal meeting" , "Gathering for a special purpose" , "court" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
