Gather grass on school store (4,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tuck shop

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

'school store' is the definition.
'tuck-shop' can be an answer for 'store' (tuck-shop is a kind of store). I'm not sure about the 'school' bit.

'gather grass' is the wordplay.
'gather' becomes 'tuck' (synonyms).
'grass' becomes 'shop' (I've seen this before).
'tuck'+'shop'='TUCK-SHOP'

'on' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tuck shop that I've seen before include "Charterhouse store" , "Candy store for schoolchildren" , "Where schoolchildren buy sweets" , "what caters for kids" , "(School) snacks seller" .)
