Push trainee towards implement (6)
I believe the answer is:
shovel
'implement' is the definition.
(shovel is a kind of implement)
'push trainee' is the wordplay.
'push' becomes 'shove' (shoving is a kind of pushing).
'trainee' becomes 'l' (as in an L-plate for a learner driver).
'shove'+'l'='SHOVEL'
'towards' is the link.
This may not be right. It may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shovel that I've seen before include "Tool for scooping" , "Scoop for lifting and carrying" , "Large spade" , "Tool like a spade" , "Spade-like scoop" .)
