Intended to teach (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

didactic

'intended to teach' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for didactic that I've seen before include "Like a teacher" , "(Tale) with a message" , "Instructive, perhaps overly so" , "giving instruction" , "Intended to teach or instruct" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Times.
