Routine set up without a girl learning (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erudition

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

'learning' is the definition.
(I know that learning can be written as erudition)

'routine set up without a girl' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'girl' could be 'di' and 'di' is located in the answer.
an anagram of 'routine' is 'erution' which is located in the left over letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for erudition that I've seen before include "Knowledge, learning" , "being widely read" , "Great learning" , "Learnedness, scholarship" , "Great knowledge" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
