Secular fella, I calculate, in part (6)

I believe the answer is:

laical

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

'fella i calculate in part' is the wordplay.
'in part' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'LAICAL' is hidden in the letters of 'fella i calculate'.

(Other definitions for laical that I've seen before include "Secular" , "Non-professional" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
