Scoffed at posh school report (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eaten

'scoffed' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'posh school report' is the wordplay.
'posh school' becomes 'Eton'.
'report' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'eton' is a homophone of 'EATEN'.

'at' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for eaten that I've seen before include "courses enjoyed?" , "having taken courses?" , "used for food" , "dined" , "Got" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
