Learn scripts in appropriate surroundings (8)

I believe the answer is:

contexts

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

'learn scripts in appropriate surroundings' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'learn scripts in appropriate surroundings' is the wordplay.
'learn' becomes 'con' ('con' can be a synonym of 'learn').
'scripts in appropriate surroundings' becomes 'texts' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'con'+'texts'='CONTEXTS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for contexts that I've seen is " Settings".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
